The design was originally made for a competition for \u201ca modern and inexpensive déjeuner (breakfast service) in both shape and decoration,\u201d held by the Meissen management in 1896. Inspired by the crocus blossom - both in the vessel\u2019s shape and in its high-temperature shades of color - Hentschel designed the déjeuner along the lines of the floral art nouveau. The design was exhibited at the Paris World Exhibition in 1900; with more than 25 sets sold, it was considered a great success.  Between 1902 and 1904, Hentschel expanded the breakfast service into a larger dinner and tea service. The Krokus-Déjeuner played a pioneering role in the field of utility porcelain in the art nouveau manner. The first example of the genre, it stimulated further experiments by other artists at Meissen."},"medium":{"label":"Medium","value":"Porcelain, enamels"},"onview":{"label":"On View","value":"0"},"media":{"label":"Media","value":[{"mediaRenditionNumber":"G12.5.1.1-5","publicAccess":"true","mediaImageURL":"https://emuseum.gardinermuseum.com/internal/media/dispatcher/5064/full","rank":"0","pixelHeight":"2956","pixelWidth":"4434","mediaID":"5064"},{"mediaRenditionNumber":"G12.5.1.2a-b","publicAccess":"true","mediaImageURL":"https://emuseum.gardinermuseum.com/internal/media/dispatcher/5058/full","rank":"0","pixelHeight":"2400","pixelWidth":"3000","mediaID":"5058"}]},"title":{"label":"Title","value":"Partial Krokus Coffee Service"},"classification":{"label":"Classifications","value":"European Ceramics"},"people":{"label":"Artist / Maker","value":"Meissen Porcelain Manufactory"},"rels":{"label":"Relations","value":"[]"},"subclassification2":{"label":"Sub-classification 2","value":""},"primaryMedia":{"value":"https://emuseum.gardinermuseum.com/internal/media/dispatcher/5064/full"},"subclassification3":{"label":"Sub-classification 3","value":""},"collections":{"label":"Collections","value":["18th Century European Porcelain","19th and early 20th Century Ceramics","German Porcelain"]},"culture":{"label":"Culture","value":"German"},"displayDate":{"label":"Date","value":"1896"},"id":{"label":"Id","value":"185652"},"dimensions":{"label":"Dimensions","value":"Overall (Tray): 3/8 × 15 3/8 × 14 3/16 in.
