The "Meissen B-form" refers to the external design of a coffee pot set during Ernst August Leuteritz's tenure as head of the decorative department at the Meissen Porzellan-Manufaktur (Royal Saxon Porcelain Manufactory). He served as the factory director from 1849 to 1886. Leuteritz created this magnificent coffee pot set form, later dubbed the "B-Form," characterized by the incredible use of 23K gold relief in a matte gold finish. The design of the Meissen B-form reflects the eclecticism of the era. In art history, this period falls in the 1840s and 1890s, where porcelain designs amalgamated elements from various styles: Byzantine, Romanesque, Gothic, Renaissance, Rococo, and Baroque.

「Meissen B-form」是Meissen Porzellan-Manufaktur(皇家撒克遜瓷器製造廠)裝飾部門的負責人Ernst August Leuteritz(1818-1893),於任職期間的咖啡壺組外型設計。他於1849年至1886年間擔任工廠廠長。他創造了這個宏偉的咖啡壺組形式,後來被稱為「B-Form」,其特點是令人難以置信的使用23K金浮雕狀態的霧金式雕飾。Meissen B-form的設計形式中不難看出折衷主義時代的痕跡。在藝術史上,這是19世紀四九十年代的時期。這一時期的瓷器設計融合了各種風格的元素:拜占庭式、羅馬式、哥特式、文藝復興式、洛可可式和巴洛克式。

Leuteritz created the "Meissen B-form" between 1844 and 1855, characterized by typical features of historicism. This style is renowned for its liberal references to the past, with elements mainly drawn from the Renaissance, Baroque, or Rococo periods, some of which are amalgamated together. These lavish ceramics are typically adorned all over and embellished with gold, catering to the new needs of the bourgeoisie: wealth. The choice of a name defining something beautiful yet practical for this era: the letter "B" actually stands for the identification number on the original mold.

Leuteritz創建「Meissen B-form」於 1844 年至 1855 年間,其特徵是歷史主義的典型特徵。 這種風格以其對過去的自由參考而聞名,其元素主要來自文藝復興時期、巴洛克時期或洛可可時期,其中一些元素融合在一起。 這些奢華的陶瓷通常通體裝飾並鑲有黃金,迎合了資產階級的新需求:財富。 名字的選擇定義了這個時代美麗而實用的東西:字母“B”實際上代表原始模具上的識別號碼。

The distinctive feature of "Meissen B-form" porcelain is the prominent convex relief in the center of the product. This form vividly reproduces the sumptuous style of the Renaissance. The spout of the teapot is adorned with stylized heads of fairy-tale creatures. The relief is covered with a matte and glossy gold finish, hand-applied three times on the unglazed surface of the porcelain, and fired three times at a temperature of 800 degrees Celsius. If properly maintained, patterns applied in this manner will not wear or fade over time.

「Meissen B-form」瓷器的顯著特徵是產品中心有突出的凸浮雕。 這種形式生動地再現了文藝復興時期的奢華風格。 茶壺的壺嘴裝飾著童話生物的風格化頭像。 浮雕上覆蓋有啞光和光澤的金色飾面,在瓷器無釉表面上手工塗抹三遍,並在800攝氏度的溫度下燒製三次。 如果維護得當,以這種方式應用的圖案不會隨著時間的推移而磨損或褪色。

The "Cobalt Blue B-form Floral Cup and Saucer Set" depicts the natural beauty of blooming flowers with special matte gold-painted floral motifs, drawing inspiration from European floral art paintings. Additionally, it features hand-painted decorations inspired by "Indian Floral Painting" dating back to the 1830s, presenting an atmosphere and charm reminiscent of a "flourishing and splendid" garden.

「寶藍色B-form繽紛花卉杯盤組」以特殊的霧面金色花卉圖案描繪盛開花朵的自然美景,從歐洲花卉藝術繪畫中汲取靈感。 此外,其手繪裝飾的靈感來自1830年代的“印度花卉繪畫”,呈現出令人想起“繁茂燦爛”花園的氛圍和魅力。
