In the manner of 18th century artisans. <BR><BR> In the nineteenth century Ernst August Leuteritz modernized many of the rococo figurines, and reissued them, creating a ""Second Rococo"" characterized by lacework details (made from actual lace dipped in slip and fired) and applied flowers; English collectors used the term Dresden porcelain to describe these wares, especially the somewhat simpering and coy figurines. Under Erich Hösel, who became head of the modelling department in 1903, old styles were revived and reinterpreted. Hösel also restored eighteenth century models. Some appealing work in the Art Nouveau style was produced, but Meissen's mainstay continued to be the constant production of revived eighteenth-century models. /Meissen_porcelain#Artistic_development
