This saucer, part of a service, was made by the Frankenthal Porcelain Manufactory between 1765 and 1775. The saucer features a delicate black and white design of a bird perched on a branch in a stylized landscape. This piece showcases the high quality of porcelain production in Germany during this period, with a focus on naturalistic details and a refined aesthetic. The piece is currently in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
