This antique Dresden fruit bowl stands about 15 inches tall and is filled with ornate porcelain detail. It consists of two separate parts, a base with two figures and a basket on top, laced with vines. All details on the piece are hand painted and very delicate. Unfortunately, a few years back the stand was tipped over and the basket suffered a devastating fall, shattering it into many pieces. Both pictures here show the fruit bowl after restoration but the red lines above trace the break lines. I reassembled the pieces using a two part epoxy.
