It could be worth checking your old ornaments!
Reporting by Sophie Watson andAn avid bargain hunter who bought an ornament at a car boot sale for just £2 was amazed to learn it was actually worth an incredible £30,000.
Auctioneer Charles Hanson said: “It’s extremely important because it demonstrates early attempts to make figures in the mid-18th century. A sleeping child in a horizontal position would have been far easier to make than a standing figure. Mr Hanson believes that the design may have been influenced by John Michael Rysbrack who was a significant sculptor and designer in England in the 18th century. He also added that the French factory of Vincennes, which later became the Sèvres factory, produced similar examples in the early 1740s.Mr Hanson said:"It is possible the Chelsea sleeping child was the result of a model sent from France. The mould would have been created from a slip casting technique.
