The biscuit technique, used in this piece, offers a matte and very white finish to the pieces, began to be used in the mid-eighteenth century, especially in France, in the factory of Sèvres, and in Italy, in the Royal Factory of Capodimonte. This technique was used to make statuettes, pastoral or gallant scenes and, in the 19th century, dolls.
