Footed bowl of solid light blue jasper with applied white jasper relief, the foot with a band of bound reeds and beading, the lower body with stylized acanthus leaves all around and the main body with figures from the "Domestic Employment" series, including women and children at play in a landscape with trees and birds and a dog on a stippled ground, with a band of guilloche below the lip.
Round dinner plate of white porcelain decorated with elaborate gilt scrolls around the rim and with scattered flowers and sheafs of wheat reminiscent of the Kakiemon style in the well, in the center decorated with the quartered Arms of Saxony and Poland centered with the small crest of the Saxon Electorate showing crossed swords, within a crowned escutcheon.
Heavy, rectangular plaque of light blue jasper with blue jasper dip and white relief with a scene of a winged cupid grappling with a faun.
The egg cup has a waisted form that extends upward and flares out, in, and out again to form the lip of the cup. The cups are glazed and shift in color from a light brown to a dark brown. The egg cups are decorated with irregular lines (either dark or light brown) that extend horizontally around the form. The egg cups have a flat lip. The interiors of the cup are also glazed and feature similar horizontal lines that correspond in placement with the exterior. The bottom of the base is unglazed off-white stoneware.
