TEA AND COFFEE SERVICE MEISSEN FOR SIX PERSONS GERMANY, 20TH CENTURY

A porcelain tea and coffee service for six persons, created by the renowned Meissen Porcelain Manufactory. The ensemble comprises 22 pieces and represents an elegant interpretation of Late Rococo with elements of Neo-Rococo, characteristic of Meissen production of the 20th century. The pure white porcelain is richly adorned with relief gilding and refined hand-painted polychrome decoration featuring small, freely scattered floral motifs. Undulating rims, plastic gilt scrolls and graceful handles emphasize the sculptural quality of the forms and refer to the classical models of the manufactory.
