Softpaste Scenic Saucer #5

This is a nice saucer dish made in France in the 18th century. The piece is made of soft paste porcelain and is hand painted with a nice landscape scene in the center in the typical Paris style. The scene is of a very nice quality and includes a building with a bridge over some water, mountains in the background as well as two adults and one child in a landscape surrounding. The rim has a cobalt blue ground color with a gold leaf garland over that and a gold ring to either side of the blue. The shape and paste of the saucer reminds me of Sevres porcelain but it was not done by them. The translucency is green and it has typical moons to it showing it to be from the 18th century. Not sure as to the maker but definitely French from this period. The dish is in superb condition with a minor touch of wear. The piece is not marked at all so it is hard to figure out the exact maker. The saucer is 1.25 inches tall and 5.125 inches in diameter. Please email me for more information or other pictures.

Price is $149
