A Meissen porcelain set consisting of a pair of small incense burners and a larger one placed in the center.
The latter is made up of a rectangular base with four legs on which rests a Shepherd in a cage with his two sheep on each side, as well as large stems of foliage in gilded bronze decorated with flowers in Meissen porcelain and finally the burner. perfume itself.
The other two rest on a tripod base topped with three feet and a central shaft. Decorated with lion heads at the top, the three legs end in a lion's paw at the bottom.
The carving of the gilded bronzes is remarkable for its finesse and the mercury gilding is original and has retained all its shine.
