Lion & Unicorn makes it easy to sell porcelain dolls, ceramics, and other valuable pieces in your collection without the hassle of consignment or the frustrations of self-coordinated sales.
Porcelain is a type of ceramic material that is made from a mixture of kaolin, feldspar, and quartz. The material is fired at a high temperature, resulting in a strong and translucent product. This type of ceramic has been used for centuries to make a variety of objects, including pottery, dishes, figurines, and statues.
One of the most famous producers of European porcelain is the Meissen factory in Germany. Established in 1710, Meissen has long been known for its exquisite figurines, plates, and other objects. In addition, the company is credited with the invention of hard-paste porcelain, considered the first true porcelain.
Other notable European porcelain manufacturers include Sèvres in France, KPM in Germany, and Worcester in England. All of these companies produce high-quality pieces that are often decorated with opulent designs and intricate paintings, helping to fetch a higher value when you’re ready to sell porcelain and ceramics as part of a collection, lot, or estate.
