The tree decoration barn "Owl Bauble" is cast in finest white Meissen porcelain and is then painted by hand. The plumage of the barn owl is applied in filigree brush strokes. A technique that provides the painting with an impressive trueness to life and testifies to the extraordinary artistic skills of the Meissen porcelain painters. According to ancient mythology, the owl is a symbol of wisdom and intelligence. In combination with the traditionally brilliant white Meissen porcelain, the tree decoration barn "Owl Bauble" pays homage to the ingenuity of the oldest porcelain manufactory in Europe. A branch with pinecones and Meissen's trademark, the Crossed Swords in iconic cobalt blue, decorate the back of the bauble. A wonderful gift for Christmas.
