Is this Meissen porcelain? Yes, "It is an attempt to approach stylistically the modern, very individually conceived design and to break new ground for Meissen porcelain." (cf. Meissen Contours 1960 - 1990, p. 116) The artists behind this were Ludwig Zepner, Gerhard Wronkowski and Christoph Ciesielski. They placed a contrasting black ribbon decoration on free-turned shapes (!) and produced only small studio series. Who doesn't feel reminded of Art Deco? And at the same time, something completely new is created here: an expressive, modern-minded design that convinces with the subtlety and originality of painting and presents optical effects that are masterfully modern. Positive becomes negative, lines are broken, straight becomes odd, black becomes white.... this concept breaks every Meissen tradition (in the best sense) and demands considerations of form and decoration at the very highest level. A Meissen "studio piece" at the same time a unique collection of modern Meissen porcelain.
