Description
Antique Dresden Teichert Meissen Reticulated hand painted compote. All hand painted piece from late 19th to early 20th century with no damage or
restorations. Solid and stable, not wobbly. 8.75" wide x 7: tall, no wear to
gilding.The term "Dresden porcelain" refers more to an artistic movement than a
particular line of figurines or dinnerware. Several decorating studios emerged
in this Saxony capital in response to the rise of "Romanticism" during the 19th
century. Dresden was an important center of this artistic, cultural and
intellectual movement, which attracted painters, sculptors, poets, philosophers
and porcelain decorators alike. In 1883, in response to the exciting
developments happening all around them, four prominent ceramic decorators
registered the famous blue crown Dresden mark, and the widely popular "Dresden
style" was born.
