This cup and saucer, part of a larger service, was produced by the Meissen Manufactory between 1775-1790. The Meissen Manufactory, founded in 1710, is known for its high-quality porcelain and intricate designs. The delicate black and white design on both the cup and saucer features images of birds, a popular motif for decorative tableware in the 18th century. The cup and saucer are currently on display at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York.
