Tea Service on Stand

Johannes Engelbrecht, c. 1725 - c. 1730

This tea service was likely a gift from Elector Frederick Augustus II to Tsarina Elizabeth of Russia. She had a particular affection for Meissen porcelain and Chinese inspired decorative designs. The gilded silver stand was specially designed to elevate the set into a true highlight of a reception room.
