Rare VON SCHIERHOLZ Porcelain Figural COMPOTE, Children Apple Tree, Retuiculated

Up for sale is an incredibly gorgeous piece of porcelain made by Von Schierholz. This piece is a large compote depicting three young children playing around an apple tree. One young girl is sitting at the base of the tree holding an apple and several apples sitting in her lap. Another young girl has one hand on a ladder as she looks up at the young boy reaching out atop the ladder trying to grab another apple. The base of the compote is the trunk of the tree. The tree has several branches on it with apples. There is a basket of apples on the group and lovely flowers. The basket of the compote is an open weave style and has many gorgeous porcelain flowers ordaining it. The inside of the compote has hand painted flowers on it. The compote measures almost 9” in diameter and 12 3/4” in height and as far as I can tell, it is in excellent condition. The last two pictures show most noteable flaws that I appreciate (the petals on the pink flower and the tip of a branch). There may be other minor damage to petals. Please be sure to look carefully at the detailed pictures that I have posted in this listing. Von Schierholz porcelain dates from around 1817. Since its inception, rather than focus of dinnerware, the Von Schierholz factory has produced some of the greatest examples of porcelain vases, compotes and figural items in the storied history of Meissen, Dresden and other producers in Germany.
