Meissen Porcelain Lace Dancing Lady Figurine with Fan
Meissen Porcelain Lace Dancing Lady Figurine with Fan
A exquisite example of Meissen's celebrated Spitzenplastik (lace porcelain) craft, this enchanting dancing lady figurine captures the delicate artistry that made Meissen the most coveted porcelain house in Europe. Dressed in a billowing lace effect skirt adorned with hand applied floral rosettes in pink, white, and blue, she holds a painted floral fan and wears yellow silk style bodice with pink underskirt . All rendered in fine hard paste porcelain.
The lace effect is achieved through a painstaking process of dipping real fabric in liquid porcelain slip before firing, preserving every thread and ruffle in permanent ceramic form. This technique was perfected by Meissen artisans and remains one of the most demanding skills in European porcelain craft.
