An imposing statue representing a traditional chef, sculpted from polychrome biscuit porcelain, an unglazed mineral material with a characteristic powdery surface. The figure stands, smiling, with a prominent mustache, wearing a tall white chef's hat. The double-breasted jacket with two rows of buttons and the apron tied at the waist are carefully sculpted. The right hand's raised thumb signifies the satisfaction of the accomplished chef. Material: Polychrome biscuit porcelain, unglazed mineral material. Height: Approximately 64 cm. Patinated colors: Ochre yellow, white, black, brick red. Red square base. Traces of use consistent with age and decorative purpose. This type of subject was intended to adorn restaurants, bistros, grocery store windows, and professional kitchens. A strong, immediately recognizable presence that brings a smile. Placed at the entrance of a kitchen, in a tastefully decorated bistro, or in an interior that appreciates character pieces, this statue will not go unnoticed. It will also delight a lover of bistro decor or antique ceramics.
