Descrizione dettagliata lotto

It has been suggested that this teabowl and saucer are decorated with the early and experimental enamels developed at Meissen before J.G. Höroldt's introduction of more sophisticated coloured enamels in the early years of the 1720s, and it has also been suggested that the decoration was carried out in Holland. For a similar teabowl and saucer with indentical decoration, see Meissener Porzellan des 18. Jahrhunderts aus Bad Pyrmonter Privatbesitz, Schloss Bad Pyrmont November 2002 - January 2003 Exhibition Catalogue (2002), p. 12, where the decoration is attributed to possibly Dutch, and where the present lot is mentioned. A similar teabowl and saucer from the Anderson Collection was sold in these Rooms on 1st June 1992, lot 5.
