Early Indian Flower Miniature Cup

This is an early child's cup made by Meissen pre 1740. It is hand painted with the hard to find orange Indian flowers design with three superb floral arrangements all around, a small one to the bottom inside and a nice trim to the inside all done in orange / rush tones with gold highlights. Gold trim to the nicely shaped handle (a shape you really only see early on). The cup is in great condition with a bit of flaking to the flower on the bottom inside - othersie it is perfect! The cup is 1.375 inch tall and 2.125 inches in diameter plus the handle which sticks out about 0.625 inches. The piece is marked with the under glaze blue crossed swords mark - no impressed number yet so a nice early piece. Please email me for more information or other pictures.

Price is $299
