Small Footed Floral Pot

This is a small pot with its lid made by Ludwigsburg between 1765 and 1770. Not sure what this was used for but probably for hot water or milk. The pot is marked with the CC mark under the crown in under glaze blue but I forgot to take a picture of it so if you need it just ask. It's there! The main body of the coffee pot is decorated with a large hand painted floral arrangement on either side as well as a smaller flower to the front and a couple of tiny leaves to hide firing flaws. The top rim as well as the lid rim have a nice relief trim to them. Nice spout and handle shapes but my favorite part are the three feet it sits on. A fairly typical feature for this maker but it sets them apart from almost all others. All three parts are trimmed with this nice deep puce color and the edges have their typical brownish red trim. Nice apple fruit finial with its leaves on the lid. A stunning looking piece! The piece is of superb quality and this shape is my favorite by them. The pot with lid is 6.25 inches tall, about 4.625 inches from handle to spout and 3.5 inches in diameter. The piece is in superb condition with just a minor scratches to the fruit finial. Please email me for more information or photos.
