AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Beautiful rare Meissen table centerpiece from the Marcolini period (crossed-swords mark with a star).

A Meissen Marcolini table centerpiece is an opulent porcelain piece from the Meissen manufactory, produced in the period of Count Camillo Marcolini (ca. 1774–1814), often in a neoclassical style with playful elements such as rocaille, floral motifs, mythological figures, or allegorical scenes (e.g., children) and gilded painting on a pierced bowl, often with two handles. These works were used as representative decorations for festive tables and reflect the Rococo or early Neoclassical style, featuring the famous crossed-swords mark and stars and sometimes additional numbers.

Please refer to the pictures for the condition! The table centerpiece is, despite its age (over 100 years old), a truly rare object with collectors' value, charm, and quality.
