Pair of villeroy & boch mettlach "burgenland" blue dishes. Stamped "v[illeroy] & b[och] m[ettlach] / saar / burgenland / unterglasur" (green stamp, 1959 to 1970). Finely detailed underglaze decoration in blue monochrome on a cream-white background: romantic landscape of a mountain stream in medallion surrounded by lush flowers.
