The Walla Crag Venus
An exceptional, oversized hand painted and crafted, bone china figurine, conceived by British couture designer and illustrator, Giles Deacon.
Deacon merges historical figurine-making techniques with narrative motifs inspired by nature, history, and the Lake District. Each flower is hand crafted, each ruffle of her collar and detail of her cuff is a hand embellished layered piece of the finest china. The pattern is meticulously painted, as is the detail of her dress, so much so, it is as if the dress and its details were that of real life.
