Outstanding set of Four Circa 1900 Spanish Mannequins
A fabulous set of circa 1900, Spanish mannequins of great quality, with satinwood bases by Ballesté.
The history of Casa Ballesté starts back in 1892 in Barcelona, and it has remained closely linked to this city ever since. It all started with Mr. J. Elias Ballesté in a spacious workshop in Carrer dels Arcs street next to Portal del Angel, in the heart of the city center. It was there where the Ballesté family designed and developed the artisanal manufacturing of the Ballesté mannequins, with the quality standards that prevail until today. The workforce in the early days reached 10 persons for a production of 40 mannequins a week. Casa Ballesté supplied mannequins to all the haute couture firms in Barcelona and Spain.
