This saucer is made by the Wahliss company in Austria between 1902 and 1910. The gilding is extremely beautiful depicting birds, grasses and bugs and is raised upon a deep blue background. In the middle are a pair of intials which look to be added later as the gilding is different and not raised. This was probably made for display ( which is exactly what I use it for on my bookshelf! ).

It is sooo beautiful!!I love the gold and deep blue!
Thanks, ATB! It's one of my favorite pieces :-) I realized the other day I have a lot of deep blue china!
Stunning.
I adore all china designed with nature, birds, grasses and bugs.
yes, isn't it odd, PVE -that we put the most natural things on the most man-made concoctions! I guess it's more of a celebration of nature!
