These collections often included exotic birds such as parrots, admired for their rarity, as well as more familiar native species.In 1731 the Meissen manufactory began a new genre in European porcelain, producing several hundred life-size and near-life-size porcelain birds and animals, many destined for the Japanese Palace of Augustus the Strong, Elector of Saxony (1670-1733). To create them, factory modelers found inspiration in nature, looking both to living and stuffed specimens, as well as zoological illustrations and Asian porcelain precedents. The great Meissen modeler Johann Joachim Kändler is known to have copied from life the birds kept at the royal aviary at Schloss MoritzburHatSaltDish ca. 1830 Mexican.

(6.99 x 7.62 x 7.62 cm), Glazed porcelain, enamel, gilt, silk cord, China, 18th-19th century, This round potpourri container has pierced walls to allow the scent to disburse. Painted in overglaze enamel, each of the three roundels on its body contains an image of a lady wearing rust-colored garments as glimpsed through yellow and pink curtains. The artisans skill can be seen in the colorful rendering of the textiles and the fluid lines of the drapery. The tradition of meiren hua ('painting of beauties') can be traced back to the Tang Dynasty (618-906) and the works of artists such as Zhou Fang (about 730-800). It is a genre of Chinese painting that spans a thousand years, but became extremely popular during the country's last imperial dynasty (1644-1912). The small object demonstrates how popular trends in painting were picked up by artists in other fields of production—even ceramics.Cylindrical bottle vase with dragons, anonymous, c. 1850 - c. 1899 Cylindrical bottle -shaped vase made of porcelain with flat shoulder, painted in underly glaze blue and red.
