Pair of Early 19th C Antique Samson porcelain farm couple figurines gold anchor pseudo-marked to Chelsea Porcelain 8" Antique Samson with gold anchor pseudo-marked to Chelsea Porcelain courting farm couple. Aprox. 20 cm in height Very good antique condition, everything has been preserved wonderfully  The flower on the woman's bust probably (I am not sure) is chipped off, please carefully regard all photos. Beautiful antique porcelain figurines of a courting farm couple in dashing colours of gold on dark blue Samson ware, with gold anchor pseudo-marked to Chelsea. Dated to the 19th century. Produced by Samson, Edmé et Cie of Paris, figurines such as these bear pseudo marks as Samson began his career by making service and set piece replacements in the late 1830s. At this point in their early history, before Samson became a name in and of itself, such reproductions were their top-of-the-line goods. The true magnificence of Samson emerges when a Chelsea replica becomes more valuable than the original. In art, It is well known that in the midst of the 19th century, the moment came when Samson replicas surpassed their models. “Great men, the most original”, as American painted John Sloan said, “borrowed from everybody”. And Samson’s borrowing from the finest British porcelain cemented their position in art porcelain history.
