Porcelain, with underglaze sword mark with star (1774-1813), Neu-Brandenstein form (from 1744), press marks 3rd and 42nd, overglaze painting in bold colours, and gilding.
The tureen and salver belong to the form with plaited relief patterns developed by Eberlein in 1741 for the head chef at the Saxon court, Friedrich August von Brandenstein. The impressively lifelike decoration with native birds appears to have been inspired by Albin's ornithological work, which is documented in the manufactory's library and which the editor illustrated from life together with his daughter Elizabeth Albin.
