This porcelain cup, part of a larger tea service, was made in the Frankenthal Porcelain Manufactory between 1765 and 1775. The cup is decorated with hand-painted black and white images of birds perched on a tree branch. The delicate details of the birds and the stylized tree branches evoke the Rococo period and a sense of nature. The cup is currently housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
