Matte Blue & Fancy Gilding Creamer

This is a superb creamer made by Nymphenburg in the early 20th century. A really nice piece from this period with a perfect blend of a superb shape with a matte blue ground color and lots of superb tooled gilding. Fully gilded handle and inside rim. A nice color combo for sure! I always really like the matte ground colors but they are so rare that one does not see them often. I think they look much better with the nice gilding than a shiny ground color. The handle has a nice shape to it with a swan head where it attaches at the top and the feathers along the bottom. The piece is5.625 inches tall including the handle, 3.625 inches from handle to spout and 2.5 in diiameter. It is marked with the under glaze green shield mark with the word Nymphenburg underneath as well as an impressed shield mark and a number as shown. The creamer is in great condition but does have a chip along the handle where the tip of the feather stick out a touch. Gilded over to hide it better and it does display perfectly. It's a great example that one really never sees anymore. I also own a few other pieces from this set I will add to the site. Please email me for more information or other pictures.
