Beschreibung:

A very rare Meissen blue and white dish c.1720-25, the well painted with an eight-petalled lotus design, each panel containing a flowering plant stem, the rim with six floral panels between unusual pierced sections, an 8cm restored rim section, 25.7cm. Provenance: from the collection of Lady Kate Davson, née Kate Foster (1938-2020). Gift of Oliver Impey. This previously unrecorded shape bears close similarities to Chinese porcelain and undoubtedly takes its influence from Oriental pieces in the collection of Augustus the Strong. Cf. Johann Friedrich Böttger zum 300. Geburtstag, pls.I73 - I76 for examples of early Meissen reticulation attributed to Johann Jacob Irminger.
