Coffeepot (part of a service) 1760 - 1765

This porcelain coffeepot is part of a larger tea and coffee service produced by the Nymphenburg Porcelain Manufactory in Germany between 1760 and 1765. The service features delicate floral motifs and scenes of people in nature, characteristic of the Rococo style. This particular piece showcases a classic, bulbous shape and is adorned with floral patterns and a touch of gold, making it a quintessential example of 18th-century European porcelain craftsmanship. The service, now housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, is a testament to the artistry and technical skill of the Nymphenburg Manufactory.
