Large male parian bust. Marked for the fine English Worcester firm Kerr & Binns, circa 1852. I am unsure of who this is but most parian was of famous literary or historical figures. He is middle-aged man, with finely molded long hair and mutton-chop side burns. His only clothing is a loosely draped top that leaves his neck and some chest exposed. Very good "as found" condition with no damage or repairs, just a little dirty, I will clean him better if desired. Very high quality Victorian parian. 11" tall x 7" wide x 4 5/8" base diameter.
