Description Offering a very rare late 19th century Meissen Swan Teapot modelled after the Johann Joachim Kandler Swan Set from 1738 in Saxony, Germany.  It's name derives from the relief decoration of a waterscape with swans.  This particular teapot is masterfully hand painted which shows the three dimensional relief in wonderful color.  The teapot measures 7 1/4 inches wide from the handle to the tip, 5 inches deep and stands 6 1/2 inches high.  The base is has the blue Meissen Mark.  The teapot has a 1 inch crack along the top edge opening on one side which I have shown in the pictures.  Other than that the teapot is in excellent condition with no other chips or cracks.  The glaze is in excellent condition.  I ship USPS Priority Mail and require full insurance.  Please check my 100% Positive Feedback and buy with confidence.
