Vintage Meissen Porcelain Trinket Box with Hand-Painted Morning Glory 'Deutsche Blumen', 1950s
:
A charming, fine porcelain trinket or pill box crafted by the world-renowned Meissen porcelain manufactory in Germany. This miniature piece features a classic bulbous shape and a loose-fitting domed lid, highlighted with fine, genuine hand-applied gold rims.
The lid is beautifully hand-painted with the academic botanical pattern 'Deutsche Blumen' (German Flowers), centering a vibrant blue Morning Glory (Convolvulus) bouquet. The lower body is further decorated with three distinct miniature wildflower clusters in pink, blue, and yellow. Meissen's meticulous attention to detail ensures that each brushstroke captures the lifelike essence of the flora.

Place of Origin: Germany
Period: Mid-20th Century (circa 1950–1960)

• Diameter: 7.5 cm (approx. 2.95 inches)
• Height: 5.5 cm (approx. 2.16 inches)
Condition Report:
Excellent vintage condition with no chips, cracks, hairline fractures, or professional restorations. The porcelain retains its original high-gloss glaze and crisp white base. The vibrant underglaze and overglaze hand-painted floral motifs are perfectly preserved. The delicate gold gilding on both rims remains completely intact, showing no signs of rubbing or wear.
Authenticity Note:
The base bears the authentic underglaze blue Meissen crossed swords mark. The mark features two incised factory grinding slashes, designating this piece as a factory second-choice classification (2. Wahl) due to minor production variations common for the era, which do not affect its superb display value. An exquisite, cabinet-ready vanity collector's piece. This piece has an attribution mark,
