Sugar bowl with a lid and a branch handle, Koenigliche Porzellain Fabrique, Meissen (1710–1763), ca. 1750. Cylindrical sugar bowl, rounded at the base, height 12 cm, width 12 cm, with a slightly arched lid topped by a plastic, colorfully painted branch handle bearing four flowers and leaves: three forget-me-nots, two brick-red flowers and one yellow. On the sides of the body two cartouche frames and on the cover one, each framed by purple draperies suspended from small flower bouquets and dry rocailles, with brick-red draperies on the symmetry axis. Within the cartouches are landscape miniatures with architecture and staffage painted in purple camaieu: (1) a fragment of a hill with trees, two figures, and a building in a valley; (2) two buildings among bushes; (3, on the cover) a plateau with a house and a distant hill. Between the cartouches on the body are two colorful ornamental-floral motifs; on the lid two woodcut flowers and three insects. Rim of bowl and lid gilded. Decoration includes floral decorations, plastic decoration, miniatures with architecture in a landscape, and miniatures with staffage.
