An exquisite antique Meissen porcelain trumpet vase, hand-painted with brilliantly detailed songbirds, butterflies, dragonflies, and botanical motifs on a luminous white porcelain ground. The elegant flared silhouette is finished with a hand-applied gilt rim, creating a refined decorative statement from every angle.
The underside bears the iconic underglaze blue crossed swords Meissen factory mark together with an impressed model number "17," dating the vase to approximately 1890–1915.
The remarkably detailed ornithological decoration demonstrates the exceptional artistry for which Meissen has been celebrated for more than 300 years. Every bird, butterfly, and dragonfly is individually hand painted with delicate shading and fine brushwork, making this a wonderful display piece whether shown alone or filled with flowers.
