It is both a striking decorative piece and a slice of history that would grace any collection or home today with its timeless beauty.

Thieme was a German artist born in 1816 who opened his porcelain shop in 1864 - originally known as Sachsische Porzellan-Fabrik Carl Thieme zu Potschappel - and went on to become a highly respected potter whose works today are highly sought after and can be found in museums and private collections around the world. His shop, later known as Thieme Potschappel Dresden or simply Dresden, has become known worldwide as a luxury brand whose delicate porcelain pottery line is synonymous with the most intricate designs with the finest of detail.

This piece - which stands 3 inches tall and weighs 1.2 pounds - personifies this excellence and artistry. Fabulous from every angle - from the cherubs' tiny etched toes to the gold-trimmed edges of the design and the exquisite texture of the intricate buds and blooms - imagine this fabulous piece on display under the lights of a curio or atop a favorite tabletop stage within your own personal showcase of revered possessions and a beautiful slice of history.
