Souvenir Miniature Vase/Bottle with "Stadt Traunstein" Scene

This item is a small, white porcelain or ceramic vase or bottle, likely a souvenir. Its approximate size can be inferred by its placement in a person's hand, suggesting it is no more than 4-5 inches tall. The primary decorative element is a monochrome black and white transfer-printed or hand-painted scene depicting a cityscape. The intricate drawing style showcases numerous buildings, possibly including houses and churches, arrayed across a hilly or textured landscape, giving the impression of an old European town. Above this scene, a banner-like scroll bears German text, which appears to read "Stadt Traunstein." This suggests the item is a souvenir from the town of Traunstein, Germany. The piece has a slender neck and a slightly flared rim, typical of a miniature vase or a decorative bottle. The white ceramic body appears clean and smooth, indicating good craftsmanship, though the fine details of the material (porcelain vs. ceramic) are not fully discernible from the image. No significant visible condition issues such as chips, cracks, or excessive wear are apparent. The quality of the decorative illustration is good, with fine lines and clear details. It likely dates from the mid-20th century, given its style and the nature of such souvenirs, or possibly later. No specific maker's marks are visible in the provided image, but such items often have marks on the base.
