Early Indian Flowers Saucer

This is a really early saucer made by Meissen in about 1730. It is hand painted with an interesting design including some flower in the Indianische Blumen style (indian flowers) a blue design around the well and a nice design to the edge. Not a decoration I have seen before but really quite nice. Being very early it is definitely a rare piece. The saucer is in great condition with a little wear mainly to the flower in the very center of the dish and a small chip to the rim as shown which is not obvious when on display. Some small chip like flaws to the foot but they are from when the piece was made and are glazed over. The saucer is about 0.875 inches tall and 4.625 inches in diameter. It is marked with a nice early under glaze blue crossed swords mark as well as two incised lines along the foot ring which is a Bossierer's mark. Please email me for more information or other pictures.

Price is $599
