More information

Frankenthal porcelain figure — “Danseurs de Bal”, modeled by Carl Theodor for the Frankenthal manufactory, 18th century, Rococo period. This elegant group captures a courtly couple mid-dance, with expressive faces and flowing drapery. The precise modeling, fine glaze, and balanced proportions represent the finest late-18th-century production from Frankenthal, founded in 1755 by Paul Hannong.

Executed with exceptional relief, the lady’s layered gown and the gentleman’s attire display incised details — ruffles, bows, and embroidery — while hands, hair, and shoes are rendered with meticulous care. The composition is designed to be viewed in the round, inviting inspection from all sides, and the subtle glaze enhances the sense of movement and elegance.

Marks: “CT” under a crown to the base, identifying Carl Theodor; factory mark of Frankenthal.

Condition: Excellent; no chips, cracks, or restorations. Minor age-consistent wear only.
