About Meissen and the Vine-Leaf Pattern:
Founded in 1710, Meissen Porzellan was Europe’s first porcelain manufactory and soon became renowned for its technical perfection and artistic innovation. Among its most iconic patterns is the Vine-Leaf Pattern, in German Voller grüner Weinkranz, introduced by Johann Samuel Arnhold in 1817. The decoration, with its green vine leaves and winding tendrils, quickly became a hallmark design and continued to be produced well into the 20th century. The pattern reflects Meissen’s fascination with nature and its mastery of hand-painted precision, which has made the manufactory an enduring symbol of European porcelain tradition.
