| These are beautiful and
appear to be perfect, but am rating them Good to Excellent condition
because of some very slight wear of gold here and there on some (not
all) of them -- only noticeable upon close examination.
Also, the decals on some (not all) of them are
off center. Age and
origin unknown, but these are definitely old. Have not been able
to identify this mark. Please
e-mail if you know this mark.
The pieces that are left are the ones with the

Pre-WW II -- 1939 or earlier.
The
mark is dated from 1918-1939
from Count Thun's Porcelain Factory.So
very dainty, elegant, and sheer -- holding up to the light, the light shines
through -- a sign of very fine porcelain. The pieces are beautifully
detailed with heavy gold trim. The cup measures approximately 2 1/2 inches
diameter by 2 1/4" tall. The saucer is 5 inches diameter.
Excellent condition -- very minor pin-head size loss of gold here and there
on inside gold ring of saucer. Priced accordingly. |

#2749 Old German Chocolate Cup, 1918-1922
SOLD |
|
Thanks to helpful viewer, Mari,
this mark has been identified as that of
Hemann Ohme Porcelain Factory, known for producing products
known as
Old Ivory. Kovel's
Dictionary of Marks, page 16, further states this factory was in
business c.1882-1930 in Niedersalzbrunn, Silesia,
Germany, (now called Szczwienko, Poland). This mark is almost worn off. Pattern name appears to be
Carmen. Also according to
Kovel's Newsletter of May 2007,
this mark was used 1918-1922. Gold trim around rims, but is somewhat worn
-- a good sign of its age. Good condition otherwise.
A pretty little old treasure at a good price.

hand painted finishing. Cup is 3" tall and scalloped saucer is 5
3/8" diameter. NOT PERFECT. The saucer has a spider crack on
the back (see picture), but it does not come through to the
front. On the cup, the very tip end of the flourish at the top of
the handle is gone (see picture). It is priced accordingly.
Still a great collector's cup and a good buy!! |

TeacupsSOLD |

"Echt
Kobalt" is apparently the pattern name (see the mark). The mark
indicates these are from the
Reichenbach Porcelain Factory of
Reichenbach, Thuringia, Germany.
The GDR part of the mark is for
"German Democratic Republic"
(East Germany) which was
established in 1949 and ended in 1990. Based on that, these cups
were made no earlier than 1949 and possibly as late as 1977 when the
company put a different mark into use (Source:
Directory of European Porcelain by
Danckert, page 383). The footed teacups are 1 12" tall x 3"
across top opening. Saucers are 4 1/4" diameter. Notice the
heavy gold decoration on the cobalt blue background, as well as the
delicate florals in the dainty rococo style cartouches. These are
real beauties and in excellent to perfect condition. |

All
pieces are simply marked
France
except for one cup which has an added
red mark that says something like
Pillivuyt et Cie., la Porcelaine de
France which I assume was/is probably a decorating mark for
this factory/studio. The closest I can come to identifying it is on
page 271 of Danckert's
Directory of European Porcelain. However, this exact
mark is not represented there, nor is there much information except they
began in business in 1853. These cups, however, are definitely not
that old and appear to be c.mid-20th century or later. The city of
origin appears to be Mehun-sur-Yevre.
Age unknown. These beautiful cups are 2" tall x 2" diameter
across top opening. Saucers are 4 1/4" diameter. One cup has a
minor flaw in the side (see picture) which is under the glaze and apparently
a manufacturing flaw. Other than that, they are in excellent
condition. Gorgeous

From Martial Redon
of Limoges, France.
Marks were used
c.1905-late 1930's. Green
mark is a whiteware mark.
Red mark is a decorating mark. The
PL is for
La Porcelain Limousine, the new factory name as of
c.1905. (Source:
Collector's Encyclopedia of Limoges
Porcelain, Third Edition,
by Gaston, page 269) This is a very special
little cup and saucer -- so dainty and so very pretty with its beautiful
roses and gold decoration. It is, unfortunately, not perfect as
we believed when we purchased it (read note below). Priced
accordingly, as is. A nice example of this old
Limoges factory and its marks. |
|
 |
 |
 |
 |
|
The
saucer is 4" diameter. The
cup is 1 3/8" tall x 2 5/16" diameter. Perhaps intended
to be a child's cup and saucer. |
The cup does have a hairline
in the side, not noticeable from the front, but visible on the inside front
panel -- will post a picture asap. I only found it just now when
trying to determine if the roses are hand painted, which they are.

little footed tea cup and saucer with bright hand-painted greens, pinks, and
oranges in a Tobacco Leaf pattern. Scalloped gold-trimmed rims on cup

although we thought it was when we bought it. While
photographing the saucer, we discovered on the backside a faint hairline of
approximately 3/8". It definitely does not go through the top side and
can barely be found -- we tried to capture in the picture below. Cup
