Copenhagen Hunting Scene Plaque

This is a very rare porcelain plaque made by Royal Copenhagen in about 1780. These plaques are from their earliest period and quite rare. This one is hand painted with a scene of a hunter on his horse with two dogs, one of which is attacking a wild boar. Nice landscape scene with gold trim around it and what is meant to look like a frame with some nice small handpainted attached flowers around the top as well as a pink ribbon. These pieces are really nice and scenic pieces like this are pretty much impossible to find by Copenhagen. The plaque is of top quality and displays nicely but there are some major condition issues. There are a some minor chips to the small blue flowers, the pink ribbon has damage to it and the piece was broken into three pieces as shown a long time ago. Put back together very well but the brown frame looking part has some small chips missing some of which have been filled in and have been painted over to hide them better. Still looks great and it is so rare that is is fine as is or one could get it easily restored! The piece has two holes in the back to string it up to hang on the wall. Right by those holes it is marked with the three blue lines as shown. The piece is 0.5 inches thick, 4.625 inches wide and 5.75 inches high. I took some close ups of areas that seem to have initials or signatures in it but as always might just be there by chance. Please email me for more information or other pictures.

Price is $999
