Painted in the manner of J.G. Melhorn, one side of the teabowl painted with a river-landscape with three men in a boat by a village nestling amongst trees, within a quatrefoil gilt cartouche with Böttger-lustre panels edged with gilt scrolls and red and brown scrolls, the interior with a Kakiemon bouquet below a gilt Laub-und-Bandelwerk border, the saucer with a river-landscape with a figure on horseback crossing a bridge before buildings, a town in the distance, within a similar cartouche and border, the underside with three concentric red circles, gilt line rims (rims with areas of wear, teabowl with minute areas of wear, saucer with areas of wear)

Cf. Rainer Rückert, Meissener Porzellan (Munich, 1966), nos. 130 and 131. For a discussion of J.G. Melhorn's and J.G. Höroldt's work, see William W. Blackburn, 'The length of J.G.
