FAQs

Meissen was the first European hard-paste porcelain manufacturer, established in Germany in the early 18th century, renowned globally for its exceptional artistry, intricate figurines, and distinctive crossed swords trademark.

These pieces are crafted from high-fired hard-paste porcelain, modelled by hand with applied clay floral elements, and hand-painted with mineral enamels often accented with gilded details.

Authentic pieces typically feature the underglaze blue crossed swords mark on the base, alongside impressed model numbers and painters numerals, coupled with fine hand-painting and crisp relief moulding.

They can be placed as striking focal points on a mantelpiece or side cabinet, contrasting clean contemporary architectural lines with ornate historical craftsmanship.

Clean gently with a soft, dry brush to remove dust, avoid immersion in water especially on gilded areas, and keep them away from direct sunlight and areas of high foot traffic to prevent accidental damage.
