Definition of nymphenburg porcelain in English English dictionary

German hard-paste, or true, porcelain produced in Bavaria from the mid-18th century to the present day. Its fame rests on its figures, particularly those in the Rococo style modeled between 1754 and 1763 by Franz Anton Bustelli (1723-1763). Tableware and vases produced at the factory in Nymphenburg, on the outskirts of Munich, often contain ozier, or basketwork, pattern borders
