Gorgeous and important tall basket in fine porcelain from the prestigious German manufacturer Meissen.

This iconic 19th-century model stands out for masterful workmanship: the oval bowl features a hand-opened lattice entirely, bordered by magnificent Rococo volutes and foliate handles highlighted with blue.
The rim is richly adorned with sculpted and relief-applied flowers and rose buds (flowers added), delicately painted in cobalt blue under glaze.

• Under the base: Official mark with two crossed swords in cobalt blue under glaze (first quality, no grinding scratches observed).

• Painter / decorator marks: Handwritten inscription “12. K”.

• Relief marks: Historical mold/shape number “m/n 6” engraved in the fresh paste, typical of Meissen workshops of the 18th and 19th centuries.

The bowl is in very good condition, a few rare signs of wear may be observed; the numerous photos show the object from all angles and are an integral part of the description.

• Marques de peintre / décorateur : Inscription manuscrite « 12. K ».

• Marques en creux : Numéro de moule/forme historique « m/n 6 » gravé dans la pâte fraîche, typique des ateliers Meissen du XVIII ème et du XIX éme siècle.
