Bio:
The Meissen Porcelain Manufactory was founded in 1710. The green Vine Leaf pattern was created in 1817 by Johann Samuel Arnhold following several years of development using chromium oxide green underglaze. The vine leaf decoration subsequently became a Meissen classic. The Crossed Swords have been the manufactory’s trademark since 1722.
