Complete Set of Four Meissen Elements Ewers
Located in Los Angeles, CA
This extremely important set of Meissen ewers represents the Four Elements: Earth, Air, Water and Fire. Impressive in both size and artistry, they are among the most famous and spectacular examples of Meissen porcelain ever made. Each vase is an incredible piece of artwork, interpreting one of the four elements into a stunning vase form of unsurpassed quality and execution. First introduced by Meissen artist Johann Joachim Kändler around 1735 the Four Elements represent that height of his achievements with fine porcelain creations.
Water with a relief naval scene flanked by the figures of a galloping horses, mermaid and the god Neptune. The circular flaring base has decorations of spouting dolphins among bulrushes.
Air is portrayed with flying birds and billowing clouds, all under the reign of Juno, the goddess who personifies air, and her peacock.
Earth is represented by a detailed hunt scene and presided over by Pan, the Greek god of woods and fields.
Fire is represented by a dragon-shaped handle, animals fleeing the burning forest and Vulcan, the god of fire.
Each ewer is marked to the underside with Meissen blue crossed swords. They are first quality with no cancelation marks.
Johann Joachim Kändler was a German sculptor who became the most important modeller of the Meissen porcelain manufactory, and arguably of all European porcelain. He worked at Meissen...

Antique and Vintage Ceramics for Sale: Shop Figurines, Vases and Scandinavian Pottery on 1stDibs
Whether you’re adding an eye-catching mid-century modern glazed stoneware bowl to your dining table or grouping a collection of decorative plates by color for the shelving in your living room, decorating and entertaining with antique and vintage ceramics is a great way to introduce provocative pops of colors and textures to a space or family meals.
Ceramics, which includes pottery such as earthenware and stoneware, has had meaningful functional value in civilizations all over the world for thousands of years. When people began to populate permanent settlements during the Neolithic era, which saw the rapid growth of agriculture and farming, clay-based ceramics were fired in underground kilns and played a greater role as important containers for dry goods, water, art objects and more.
Today, if an Art Deco floor vase, adorned in bright polychrome glazed colors with flowers and geometric patterns, isn’t your speed, maybe minimalist ceramics can help you design a room that’s both timeless and of the moment. Mixing and matching can invite conversation and bring spirited contrasts to your outdoor dining area. The natural-world details enameled on an Art Nouveau vase might pair well with the sleek simplicity of a modern serving bowl, for example.
In your kitchen, your cabinets are likely filled with ceramic dinner plates. You’re probably serving daily meals on stoneware dishes or durable sets of porcelain or bone china, while decorative ceramic dishes may be on display in your dining room. Perhaps you’ve anchored a group of smaller pottery pieces on your mantelpiece with some taller vases and vessels, or a console table in your living room is home to an earthenware bowl with a decorative seasonal collection of leaves, greenery and acorns.
Regardless of your tastes, however, it’s possible that ceramics are already in use all over your home and outdoor space. If not, why? Whatever your needs may be, find a wide range of antique and vintage ceramics on 1stDibs.
