This large-scale Wessel Frankenthal Dresden-style porcelain lace musical trio captures a magnificent 18th-century Rococo parlor concert. Spanning an impressive 11 inches long and standing 8 inches tall, this detailed mid-century tableau features a multi-figure arrangement: an elegant woman seated at a grand piano, a gentleman cellist, and a gentleman flutist. Lavishly adorned with intricate hand-painted accents, hand-applied floral rosettes, and extensive porcelain lace trim, this post-war German masterpiece holds incredible presence as a vintage collector's centerpiece.Item Details
