Caughley Porcelain

How we make our models

Pouring bone china into a horse body mould. A horse and jockey is made up from 16 separate moulds. 

Fine detail can be added into a bone china figure during assembly.

Before a model can be placed in a kiln for the first of it's firings, a bone china scaffolding needs to be carefully assembled around the sculpture to support it,  preventing  it's legs from bending.

The painter hand paints five different coats of paint; each fired separately, starting with light shades and building to darker tones to achieve the lifelike appearance of the horse's coat.

Each horse is finally completed with leather accessories, a wooden base and engraved plaque.
