c1890 Dresden Hand Painted Demitasse or Childrens cup and saucer set of 4. I\'m not 100% sure if these are Childrens dishes or what. They are a little smaller than demitasse cups and shaped like teacups. So I\'m really thinking maybe these were childrens dishes for the super rich. Selling the 4 cups and saucers shown. One has a slight crowsfoot in the center of the base of the saucer, I could not see it in the front no matter how hard I tried to find it. No other cracks, chips, or restorations. Saucers are 4.25\" wide, cups are 1 5/8\" tall x 2 1/8\" wide.

The term \"Dresden porcelain\" refers more to an artistic movement than a particular line of figurines or dinnerware. Several decorating studios emerged in this Saxony capital in response to the rise of \"Romanticism\" during the 19th century. Dresden was an important center of this artistic, cultural and intellectual movement, which attracted painters, sculptors, poets, philosophers and porcelain decorators alike. In 1883, in response to the exciting developments happening all around them, four prominent ceramic decorators registered the famous blue crown Dresden mark, and the widely popular \"Dresden style\" was born.
