{"product_id":"set-of-3-meissen-bisque-porcelain-medallions","title":"Set of 3 Meissen Bisque Porcelain Medallions – Goethe, Schiller \u0026 Charlotte of Prussia","description":"\u003cp\u003eA rare and refined \u003cstrong\u003eset of three porcelain portrait medallions\u003c\/strong\u003e produced by the Meissen Porcelain Manufactory for the Berlin State Museums during the era of the German Democratic Republic. Executed in fine white bisque porcelain, each piece showcases the exceptional precision and subtle relief modeling for which Meissen is internationally renowned.\u003cbr\u003eThe medallions depict three important historical figures of German culture and history: Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, Friedrich von Schiller, and Princess Charlotte of Prussia. Each portrait is rendered with remarkable clarity and classical restraint, emphasizing form, profile, and expression through delicate sculptural detail rather than color.\u003cbr\u003eTheir minimalist white finish enhances the timeless, almost neoclassical character of the compositions, making them equally suited for traditional interiors, academic settings, or curated modern spaces. Displayed together, they form a cohesive and intellectually engaging wall arrangement.\u003cbr\u003eEach medallion bears an inscription on the reverse referencing the Berlin State Museums in the capital of the GDR, together with Meissen’s iconic blue crossed swords mark, confirming authenticity and origin. The reverse of each piece also features a shallow indentation for hanging, allowing the plaques to be displayed on the wall.\u003cbr\u003eThis set is in very good vintage condition with no chips or cracks.
