A small white angel plucks a harp, sized to hold the thinnest of taper candles — the kind of quiet detail Dresden porcelain has been prized for since the 18th century.

A sweet accent for a holiday mantel, a child's room, or a collector's shelf year-round.

Dresden ware is known for its meticulous handwork, though pinpointing an exact maker or year is notoriously difficult — over 40 different workshops produced pieces under variations of the Dresden name and crown mark. This one keeps its bright white finish (it photographs slightly darker than it appears in person) and holds a mini taper candle; a bit of dripped wax at the opening will keep it secure.
