About the Item
An Art Nouveau porcelain centerpiece from the early 20th century, featuring two nymph-like maidens emerging from a large oceanic shell. This sculptural piece is a celebration of natural forms and feminine beauty, masterfully molded and hand-painted in soft pastel tones of ivory, green, and earthy browns.
This Art Nouveau sculpture was made by Royal Dux Bohemia between 1890 and 1913, as indicated by the mark on the base.
The dynamic composition evokes the movement of water and wind: flowing hair, draped garments, curling waves, and blooming water lilies create a sense of life and fluidity typical of the Art Nouveau aesthetic. The figures, partially nude and gracefully posed, reflect a romanticized vision of nature and mythology.
An enchanting collectible for lovers of symbolist porcelain, mythological themes, or Art Nouveau décor.
Take into account that the colors on the items may vary depending on the type of lighting and the type of screen from which you see the images.

Royal Dux Bohemia
Royal Dux is a porcelain company based in the Czech Republic that manufactures figurines, vases and other ceramics and objects in neoclassical and Art Nouveau styles. Some of the company’s most popular pieces include the Bohemia centerpiece as well as their Elephant figurine.
A member of the Czech Porcelain Group, Roya Dux has produced its brand of figural and decorative porcelain works since 1853. Model expert Eduard Eichler established the company in Duchov, Bohemia, in 1860 and ran Royal Dux Bohemia until his death in 1887, recreating historical designs from England, Denmark and France. At the start of the 20th century, the company enjoyed remarkable success thanks to the works of the designer Alois Hampel.
Royal Dux porcelain pieces are designated by their trademark pink triangle, which serves as a certificate of authentication. The company enjoyed a renaissance in 1958 owing to the display of Jaroslav Ježek’s collection at the world exhibition in Brussels that year.
In 1992, the Duchov factory rebranded itself as Royal Dux.
