The Swan Service was designed from 1737 onward by master modeler Johann Joachim Kaendler for Count Heinrich von Brühl and, with more than 2,200 pieces, is considered one of the most extensive and elaborate Baroque ceremonial services. The finely modeled pair of swans, set among reeds, shells, and water motifs, gives the service its name and distinctive character.

To this day, each piece is carefully shaped and finished by hand at the Meissen manufactory. The white version emphasizes the sculptural quality of the relief, making the piece a refined addition to elegant table culture.
