Goblet 1735 - 1745

This Meissen porcelain goblet, dated 1735-1745, is a beautiful example of European decorative arts during the Rococo period. It is characterized by its delicate floral design, and an elegant, slightly bulbous form. This Goblet is a testament to the skilled craftsmanship of the Meissen Manufactory, one of the first and most influential porcelain factories in Europe, which was established in 1710. The Goblet's intricate details and intricate floral patterns are typical of the Rococo style, which emphasized delicate ornament, asymmetry and a playful use of color. This Goblet is currently housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, NY.
