Chinese Zodiac Signs Dog

The figure of the dog is part of the collection "Chinese signs of the zodiac", which was created by Meissens artist Maria Walther as a reminiscence of the Chinese legend for interior design. The sculptures of the "Chinese Zodiac" collection seem to be reduced to the essentials, but play with the possibilities of porcelain design. A refined work for interior design and testimony to the wealth of ideas of the Manufactory. The legend begins with the Jade Emperor inviting the entire animal kingdom to a race across the river, with the first twelve places promised immortality in the Chinese horoscope. The figure of the dog from the collection "Chinese Zodiac" is depicted at the moment when it reaches the finish line as the eleventh animal. Since time immemorial, the dog has stood for loyalty, but also for justice and honesty. In the most beautiful white porcelain, this figure not only impresses with its symbolic power in any interior, but is also a testimony to the beautiful craftsmanship of the manufactory.
