Based on a Chinese "Famille verte" pattern that was first copied at Meissen around 1730 for the French dealer, Lemaire (see J. Weber, Meißener Porzellane mit Dekoren nach ostasiatischen Vorbilden, vol. II (2013), cat. no. 324, for an example with blue enamel crossed swords mark made for Lemaire). Another is in the Arnhold Collection, New York (illustrated, together with the Chinese original, by M. Cassidy-Geiger, The Arnhold Collection of Meissen Porcelain 1710-50 (2008), p. 522f).
