Scenic Needle Case / Etui

This is a rare treat - a needle case or etui made by Meissen around 1750. A much nicer version than most one sees even from Meissen! It has six handpainted top notch Watteau style scenes on it as well as some relief design to the paste. Four scenes are on the sides of the peice and are larger - all include a couple in a landscape surrounding and the last two scenes are smaller - one at the top and one at the bottom. The top one is of a lady with a sheep and the bottom one of a lady with a fan (I think). The scenes are of superb quality! Nice raised deisgn to the paste around the scenes and nice metal mounts - not sure if they are silver that has tarnished a bit, a gold wash or a low grade gold. Not clue on that stuff but certainly not something cheap! The box is in amazing condition - no problems at all except for a few tiny firing specs from the making and normal on the early pieces. The etui is not marked which is the norm! It is about 4 inches tall and 0.75 inches in diameter. Please email me for more information or other pictures.
