Title: Pair of amphora-shaped vases with lids – Carl Thieme, Potschappel, Dresden

Elegant pair of amphora-shaped porcelain vases with lids, attributed to the Carl Thieme manufactory, Potschappel, Dresden (Germany).

The two vases feature a refined amphora form with lids, characterized by rich Rococo-inspired decoration, polychrome ornaments, relief decorative elements, and gilded details.

Both pieces bear on the base the blue mark “PS Dresden,” a mark documented in the production of the Carl Thieme manufactory of Potschappel from the early 20th century.

The Carl Thieme manufactory, founded in Potschappel near Dresden, is known for producing decorative porcelain with historical/Rococo style, often featuring elaborate ornamental forms, floral decorations, applied elements, and gilding.

The pair is particularly interesting because the two items are identical and complete with lids, forming a harmonious decorative ensemble.
