Cream pot with cover 1761 - 1774

This cream pot and cover is a fine example of 18th-century European porcelain. The Marieberg Manufactory, located in Sweden, created this piece between 1761 and 1774. The delicate floral motifs painted in black on the white porcelain, which includes a tulip and a rose, are characteristic of the Rococo style. This elegant object, currently housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, reflects the artistry and sophistication of the era.
