Meissen.

Meissen. Ca. 1723. Porcelain, enriched in colours, painted in gold. Oval bowl with gilt notches that divide the exterior sides of the bowls in four evenly wide sections. In these paintings Chinese in von Höroldt style, couples or groups. The scenes feature the chase for a dragon, the children's game in a hammock, one scene with tea ceremony and horned mythical creatures, the last one with Chinese man smoking a pipe. On the lid four chinoiseries that feature tea and garden ceremonies. The gilt notches and pieces are rare for Meissen services. It can be assumed that the small sugar bowl steams from a tea service with this decor. 6,5x12x10cm. KPM and swords mark, painted blue under the glaze. Provenance: Private collection Bavaria.
