Meissen Marcolini Cups and Saucers with Vibrant Floral Paintings

• Deutsche Blumen - Deutsche blumen is a German term which translates to "German flowers." It is a decorative art style that emerged in Germany in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. The style is characterized by a profusion of highly detailed and lifelike flowers, fruits, and leaves, typically arranged in bouquets or garlands.
  
  The style was particularly popular in the manufacture of porcelain, with many German porcelain factories producing pieces in the style. These pieces were often used for table settings, and were highly prized for their beauty and craftsmanship.
  
  Deutsche blumen was a reaction against the ornamental austerity of the previous rococo and empire styles, and was a reflection of the growing interest in naturalism and botanical illustration during the 19th century. The style is considered to be a precursor of the Art Nouveau movement, which emerged later in the century.
• Foliate - Decorated with leaves or leaf-like forms.
