Cup and saucer 1755 - 1775

This cup and saucer, produced by the Fürstenberg Porcelain Manufactory between 1755 and 1775, is a prime example of Rococo style porcelain. The delicate, asymmetrical floral designs in shades of purple and pink, along with the idyllic landscape scene featuring a small cottage and trees, are hallmarks of the Rococo period. The gold edging adds an elegant touch, highlighting the craftsmanship of the Fürstenberg Manufactory. The cup and saucer are on display at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.
