Hello, here is some info on Dresden, hope it helps! :)
 
 
Dresden backstamp: A crown with a "D" under it, or the word "Dresden," usually printed in blue or green ink. This backstamp was shared among a number of different factories, but didn't become common until the 1880's. The addition of the word "Germany" indicates a 20th century piece.
 
 
Presence of lacework. Made by dipping real lace in porcelain, this was used to decorate the skirts and cuffs of figurines and the borders of plates. This is a strong identifying feature of Dresden porcelain as the technique was widely employed on its wares.
 
Scrutinise the porcelain itself. This should be very pale and glossy, elegantly potted but not eggshell thin.
Hand decoration, especially hand - applied gilding and painted floral vignettes. All Dresden porcelain would have been hand decorated. Identify hand-painted decoration by looking for unevenness in the thickness of the paint and an absence of printed outlines around the edges of the design.
 
 Dresden produced a range of wares from plates and vases to figurines, but they all display the same Rococo influence. The effect is fussy, pretty, delicate and feminine, with moulded or painted decoration involving flowers, shells and scrolls and background colours of vivid pink and blue.
