A MEISSEN TWO-HANDLED BEAKER AND SAUCER
Böttger porcelain circa 1715,
Decorated in Holland circa 1720-25
The saucer with incised mark inside the footrim
The beaker 7.5 high, the saucer 12.4 cm diam.
The shape of these beakers with their angular handles and less tapering form predates the two-handled beakers of the 1720s. These were probably old redundant stock from Meissen, perhaps acquired by Rudolphe Lemaire and brought to Holland for enamelling.
