About Boehm American Porcelain
Sharon Lee Parker, an avid lover of Boehm Porcelain, recently acquired the company in March 2009 along with other passionate Boehm admirers to keep the studio prospering where it belongs, in the United States of America.
Mrs. Parker, a nationally known Cancer Coach, author and founder of Life Lover Foundation for cancer research, proudly states, “A Boehm creation is a forever gift for anyone, including yourself.”
Boehm is a true classic, known the world over as the finest authentic American porcelain flowers, birds and wildlife. Founded in 1949 in Trenton, New Jersey, sculptor Edward Marshall Boehm became an over night sensation when the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York declared the Boehm sculptures among the finest in the world.
The Boehm legacy reaches far and wide. Since considered the finest in American hand craftsmanship, US Presidents have presented these national treasures for decades to Heads of State, Royalty and Celebrities worldwide.
Now, as Boehm celebrates its 60th Anniversary, the studio is proud to have created the magnificent limited edition of the Orchid in two sizes exclusively for The Pennsylvania Horticultural Society Members and The 2010 Philadelphia International Flower Show patrons.
