Hello
"Parian product was" a form of porcelain, which was invented in the 1840s - is relatively inexpensive permits reproduction of the sculpture
Staffordshire company operated by William Taylor Copeland and Thomas Garrett was the first to produce and sell in 1842 and became one of the major manufacturers.
Replicas are often small, original works could be mass produced, so that the consumption of Paros is the sculpture, as the prints are of the painting. Parian product is white or ivory, which reproduces the appearance of real marble, but in a much lower cost. Nearly all middle-class families in Victorian England would have had at least one example.
So, what have you, is a statue of an astronomer, porcelain Paros.
