This delicate porcelain saucer, created in Vienna between 1720 and 1740, showcases the intricate artistry of the time. The saucer's white ground is adorned with delicate floral motifs painted in shades of red, pink, blue, and gold, creating a harmonious and visually appealing design. The central circular motif is surrounded by a decorative border that adds an elegant touch to the overall piece. This piece exemplifies the influence of East Asian aesthetics, particularly Japanese Imari porcelain, which was highly sought after in Europe during this period. The Saucer is a testament to the skill of Viennese artisans and their ability to produce high-quality decorative objects.
