dutch landscape saucer

I bought this saucer in Prague a month ago. It is painted in a puce monochrome, and is based on a painting by David Teniers, a Dutch artist whose works were very famous among the mid-18th century artists who decorated European porcelain, especially those from Meissen. I found a similar saucer in the Kathy Gillmeister Collection at the Crocker Art Museum. It is listed as a 1740’s piece.

"queen charlotte" imari cup

I bought this cup on Ebay. It has an Imari pattern that is called "Queen Charlotte," and it was sold on Ebay as a 1735 Meissen piece. I found the mark in the Roentgen’s book, and it does say that it is attributed to early Meissen marks. The colors and the workmanship on this piece are amazing!

I bought this saucer on Ebay, it came from Germany. On a dealer's site from Chicago I saw a similar saucer and a cup with the following description:

"1730-1735. 4 1/2". Fels and Vogel pattern of a bird above rocks and flowering branches, over decorated in Angsburg probably in the Seuter workshop, in tooled gilding with broad borders edged on the rims with scroll work. The saucer with flared rim."

I am attaching here the other side of the saucer with a Meissen early mark.

opening remarks

I guess this is going to be the record of my Meissen collecting, since I am just starting it. I will also post pictures of the items I find as well as ask questions about pieces I am puzzled about...
I started my collection with a narrow and ambitious design - to collect 18th century Meissen porcelain. I am interested more in the styles, patterns, and marks; it is not that important for me to have intact pieces or complete pieces - a cup without a saucer with a chip made in 1735 is more interesting for me than a perfect cup and saucer set from 1850...
