#2164 Hand Painted "English" Plate

 This beautiful hand painted plate is OLD and does have some very light crazing which is not noticeable except upon close inspection.  It also have a fleabite on the underside edge (not seen from the side). 

Unmarked, but most likely of English origin.

 The beauty of the hand painting and the heavy gold trim on the scalloped rim make up for any imperfections.

#2733 Hand Painted German Plate Roses

 Signed Geneva (probably an American China Painter).  Mark on back is simply Germany and was obviously applied with a stamp -- notice the ink smeared before it had a chance to dry.  This stamped mark infers the plate (probably a whiteware blank) was already in existence prior to 1891, and the stamp was applied at a time after 1891 to comply with the McKinley Tariff Act of 1891.  Geneva was most likely an American China Painter in the late 19th or early 20th century.  Beautiful reticulation on scalloped rim.  Gorgeous Plate.  Excellent condition.

10 3/4" diameter.  Pretty Roses and other transfer florals on a pale yellow background.  It does have some wear and is priced accordingly.  The Pirkenhammer mark dates to 1918-1938 according to the Pirkenhammer website.  The other mark is dated to c.1930-1935 and is that of Schmieger & Sons of Schonfeld, a decorating studio in Carlsbad, Bohemia, Czechoslovakia.  Therefore, the date of the plate is 1930-35.  (Sources:  Directory of European Porcelain, Ludwig Danckert, page 413; and Keramik-Marken Lexikon,1885-1935 Europa by Dieter Zuhlsdorff, page 293).   A very nice decorative plate.

SOLD#2751 Z. S. & Co. BavariaSOLD

I originally thought Punch to be a pattern name, especially considering the grape motif. -- that made sense.  However, I have now heard from two different viewers with plates with this exact Z.&S Punch mark, but each with totally different decoration (pastoral scene, cherubs, etc.),  Therefore, I have to assume Punch must be the name of the plate mold or perhaps a product line name.  I don't have that answer and can only speculate for now.  The mark is for Z. S. & Co., Zeh, Scherzer & Co., Rehau, Bavaria, Germany, and is shown in references as first used in c.1880.  (Source:  Kovel's New Dictionary of Marks, page 225).  This plate is decorated with transfer grapes and foliage.  Not perfect (see pictures) -- it does have a worn spot in one section of the grapes and two places on the leaves; also has utensil marks from normal use.  Still a very pretty decorative plate.  Priced accordingly.  9 1/2" diameter.

 Haven't been able to identify this particular mark.  Ready for wall display.  Intricate design on scalloped rim which is trimmed in gold.  The small and delicate flowers are hand painted.  7 1/2" diameter.

 Mark is for Porcelain Factory Tettau and is dated c.1902 when the factory started operating under that name (one source says 1902; another says 1915).  (Sources:  Pages 42 and 487 of Rontgen's and pages 449-450 of Directory of  European Porcelain).  Beautiful turquoise and yellow colors and floral transfer decoration.  It is an old plate and has some wear of the gold on the rim edge.  8 1/4" diameter.
