Sorgenthal Period Saucer #1

This is a really nice saucer made by Royal Vienna in 1790 during the famous Sorgenthal period which was the best time for this maker. It is hand painted with lots of fancy gilding much of it with lots of raised details! There are three panels of gold scrolls on white ground, three gold scenes on pink ground with a thin maroon band around them with the corners having a larger maroon area and three panels going into the saucer of gold designs on a dark blue ground. Greek key trim separating them white and pink panels and around the central design as well. Gold trim to the edge with a thin maroon stripe below it. Really a very fancy but still elegant design! Wish I had a matching cup but maybe someone out there does. Typical shape to the saucer for this period! The saucer is in great condition with just one of the tiny gold dots missing which is an easy cover up and a really thin small flake to the outside edge as shown. It displays perfectly! The saucer is 1 inch tall and 5 inches in diameter. It is marked with the underglaze blue shield mark as well as the typical impressed year mark (90 in this case) as well as another impressed number (39 maybe)and a puce 84. as the painter's mark for Franz Kastner .
