Border Fine Arts Beatrix Potter figures. I have 19 different figurines all in perfect condition in original boxes (except 1). All bought in the 1990’s and kept in a display cabinet. These were made in England (except 1, China). These are made from Thorionware, a unique resin composition process developed by Border Fine Arts which allows the artist great scope for exciting, detailed designs previously impossible in ceramic sculptures. Each piece is hand painted with special enamels that fuse with the white body to produce a lifelike ceramic finish after firing.
