Meissen - Plate - Porcelain

Impressive decorative piece in exquisite German porcelain, produced during the height of the Art Nouveau (Jugendstil) period, between the late 19th and early 20th centuries, approximately between 1890 and 1910, in 22-carat gold.
The piece stands out for its exuberant floral decoration, done in relief, with motifs of flowers, leaves and sinuous tendrils typical of the Art Nouveau aesthetic. The composition is accentuated by an intense cobalt blue background, which elegantly contrasts with the white porcelain and the rich hand-applied gilding.
The wavy edge harmoniously follows the naturalistic design of the decoration, and the richness of the sculptural details demonstrates the artisanal mastery of the workshop that produced the piece. The gilding presents notable brilliance and highlights every vegetal element of the composition.
The reverse bears relief decorations and a hand-painted blue underglaze mark. According to available information, the piece is attributed to Meissen, one of the most prestigious European porcelain manufacturers, founded in 1710 in Germany. The style, execution technique, and quality of the decoration are characteristic of German luxury production from the Belle Époque period.
This piece represents an excellent example of early 20th-century German decorative art and constitutes both a valuable collector’s item and a striking decorative element with high visual impact.
Due to age, the gilding is more faded in some parts, but all flaws are visible in the photos.
