Description and Condition
An ornate antique European porcelain serving or centerpiece bowl featuring an elaborate pierced and reticulated border molded with overlapping grape leaves. Extensive gold decoration highlights the raised leaves, openwork rim and scrolling details, while the center is decorated with a colorful bouquet of pink roses, purple flowers and smaller blossoms.
The underside bears a hand-painted blue crossed-swords style mark with a cancellation/slash. The mark resembles the famous Meissen crossed swords; however, we have not independently authenticated this piece as Meissen manufacture, so it is conservatively offered as Meissen-style European porcelain.
Good antique condition with expected age-related surface wear and areas of wear, thinning and discoloration to the extensive gold decoration. Minor surface marks and manufacturing irregularities may be present. No major cracks or repairs were noted.
