This octagonal porcelain dish, dating to 1722-1723, is a fine example of Vienna porcelain. Decorated with a delicate floral design featuring a bird perched on a blooming branch, the dish showcases the vibrant colors and intricate details characteristic of the Viennese porcelain workshops. The use of a white ground, known as "blanc de Chine" is a hallmark of this period, reflecting the influence of Chinese porcelain on European ceramic production. The dish is a testament to the artistry of Vienna porcelain makers, their meticulous craftsmanship and skillful application of color.
