This majolica finished jardinière is done in the style of the Meissen factory,
and makes a wonderful centre piece for any table.
The interior of the piece is rendered in a beautiful aquamarine glaze. The ground moves from earthen tones at the top towards a beautiful warm sandstone colour towards the base.
The rim and base are ormalu, in a Chinese style, pierced, as is the base, with four
dragons mask pedestal feet. Flowers depicted are roses, anemone, campanella
with leaves, tendrils and buds.
