A 19th century Royal Cobalt Blue Meissen Pate Sur Pate vase of a Maiden seated on a Centaur. Beautifully decorated in cobalt blue, salmon pink, 24-karat brushed gilt decoration and the marvelously well-known pure white that Meissen has set the standard for since 1710. The subject depicts a neoclassical Pate Sur Pate scene of a beautiful maiden seated on a centaur peering into the distance, while the centaur blows a horn, signaling their arrival. The pink and white pate sur pate is of magnificent quality, perfectly outlining the two subjects in a three dimensional plane. From the veil of the maiden to the mane of the centaur, each is marvelously captured in true essence. The two handles are beautifully molded with floral designs and 24-karat two-tone gilt decoration. Having the Meissen Blue Cross Swords Mark in Underglaze blue; Germany, circa 1860. Pressnumber: 8 Incised: F158 17/55.
