Kloster Veilsdorf Puce Scenic Saucer

This is a rare porcelain saucer made by Kloster Veilsdorf of Germany in about 1767. Closter Veilsdorf was the most important Thuringian factory of the 18th century. It was founded in 1760 by Prince von Hildburghausen with the help of the arcanist Meyer. In 1795 the factory went to the Duke of Sachsen Altenburg who sold it to the Greiner family who owned most of the other makers in this region by then. They are still around today. The saucer is hand painted with puce scene in the center surrounded by a gold ring with an oak ? leaf design along the rim and gilding to the edge. The saucer is marked underneath with a blue CV mark and some incised numbers or letters as shown possibly B or 3 L. It is in great condition with just a little wear as shown. The saucer is 1.125 inches tall and just under 5.25 inches in diameter. Please email me for more information or photos.

Price is $399
