Flasche Frühlingsblüher, Lim. 25

The way the hand-painted floral details pop against the rich red-brown glaze makes this feel like a tiny museum piece. It's hefty for its size, and the cork closure fits perfectly.

The porcelain has a subtle, almost metallic sheen in the light that I wasn't expecting from the photos. It feels wonderfully substantial in the hand, and the painted floral detail is incredibly fine.

The deep reddish-brown of the Böttger stoneware is even richer in person, and the floral painting by Victoria Schmidt has a delicate, hand-painted feel that photos don't quite capture. It's a beautiful piece that feels substantial and historical, perfect for displaying on a shelf.
