This Capodimonte porcelain rose is so beautiful, and realistic looking. The rose is an off-white color with light lavender tips. There is a partial stem that comes out 2 inches long. This was a piece from my grandmother's collection and the stem has always looked like this. I am not sure if it broke off something longer or is made that way to look "cut". (see photos)

The Capodimonte porcelain is handmade in Italy; each petal and leaf is individually formed to create a flower of incredible realism. The measurements are 4" long and 2.5" tall, and about 4" across the widest part.
