Description.
A superb Vienna saucer, painted by the famous artist, Thomas Mitterer, and manufactured during the Sorgenthal Period (1784-1805), being the time during which the factory was run by Konrad von Sorgenthal. The Sorgenthal period is arguably the period during which the finest work of the factory occurred. This piece is finely painted in sepia, with an obelisk, adjacent to hollyhocks, contained within a shaped gilt reserve on a rich blue ground, marked "indissoluble".
For very similar pieces, see the website of the Museum Für Angewandte Kündt, Vienna (MAK) and the photos attached.
The Vienna shield (Bindenschild) mark appears to the base, Together with an indistinct triple number sequence, which appears to be 802 – bearing out an 1802 dating of the piece.
Condition.
There is a small filled rim chip and associated hairline which has been restored, as to the inner rim, with high-quality professional restoration.
Dimensions.
13.3cm in diameter.
We do not offer combined postage as the figure we charge reflect the time taken to pack and source packaging material which is incredibly time-consuming. Ultimately, it is the combined price which reflects the true cost.
See our other items. If you like what you see, we do have other items that are not necessarily listed and which may be of interest.
We use recycled packaging. It helps our environmental footprint, but does not necessarily look very pretty!
If the postage policy specifies that postage is included, we will send by tracked postage, rather than tracked and signed. If you wish for the latter, please let us know. There will be an additional charge which we will notify to you.
When we send by tracked alone the item will be at your risk from the point that we can prove, by means of showing a delivery confirmation, that it was delivered to your premises. Until that point, the item will be at our risk.
We are prepared to deliver all over the world, except (for obvious reasons, given the Russian state's unprovoked acts of aggression in Ukraine) to Russia.
We aim to ensure that our descriptions are absolutely accurate. Nevertheless, antique porcelain is never perfect. We use high definition photography with the aim of making the condition of any item extremely clear. Defects which are obvious in the photography we use are deemed to have been declared, even if we do not specifically refer to them in the description.
Restoration is sometimes extremely difficult to detect. We use UV light and transmitted light to check whether restoration has occurred. Sometimes, even those methodologies do not reveal restoration. If you are able, notwithstanding the definition, to show that restoration of a significant nature has occurred, we would obviously allow cancellation of the sale in such circumstances.
