Dresden Ambrosius Lamm Set 12 Dinner Plates Birds Ornithological Vintage Gilt

  

A set of truly amazing 12 dinner plates from the famous porcelain studios of Ambrosius Lamm. These hand painted, heavily gilded plates showcase colorful birds and a profusion of flowers set amongst elaborate gilt paste scroll work and raised beading. The well of each plate is graced by luscious fuchsia petaled flowers with a lively bird about to take flight. Six plates have a blue bird with yellow breast, six have a purple bird with yellow breast, each with sensitive multicolored details. The transition between lip and well is a wide gold band with a simple smaller accent band just inside.

On the lip of each plate is a riot of garlands and gold, featuring flowers in fuchsia, purple, blue, dusty red and yellow. More birds adorn the four points on the lip, accompanied by raised and hand painted gilt work. The rims are further trimmed in raised gold. Each plate is marked on back with the blue lamb over Dresden Germany. Gold rose covers plate maker mark.

Great condition, no breaks, chips, hairlines or other issues. Very light gilt wear in the middle circle appropriate to its age and use.
