An exquisite piece from the Marcolini Era of Meissen porcelain, this Flowers and Insect Motif Teacup & Saucer embodies the grace and naturalism that define late 18th- to early 19th-century European porcelain. Hand-painted blossoms and delicately rendered insects adorn the fine white surface, each brushstroke reflecting Meissen’s mastery of detail and balance. The teacup measures 2 inches tall, 4.1 inches wide, and 3.2 inches across, while the saucer spans 5.3 inches. Together, they showcase the elegance and craftsmanship of one of Meissen’s most celebrated periods, distinguished by the underglaze blue crossed swords mark with a star—an emblem of authenticity and artistry. A remarkable example of historical porcelain, this set is ideal for collectors who appreciate Meissen’s enduring refinement and centuries-old tradition.
