Orangery Lemon Can

This lemon shaped box hand-painted in the finest gold belongs to the series "Orangerie", which includes five fruit boxes and a bowl in the decoration naturalistic, monochrome and bright gold for Interior Design Meissens. The latter are contemporary interpretations of historical original forms from the 18th century. Harmoniously coordinated colors or matter-of-factly placed gold overlays complement the detailed, naturalistic decoration. In interior design, this decoration is a popular accessory, as the box combines traditional craftsmanship and modern aesthetics in white porcelain in a manner typical of the manufactory. According to the Meissen tradition, all decorations are hand-painted in masterly fine work. The objects work as an ensemble, as individual pieces or in mixed decors, making them suitable as decoration for any interior design. Hand-painted and immaculately modeled, this box with crossed swords testifies to Meissen's promise of quality.
