Description

Offered for sale is a beautiful antique porcelain plate with pale yellow peace rose bouquets arranged against a dark green border. The plate was made by Rosenthal, operating the porcelain factory of Fritz Thomas in Marktredwitz, Bavaria, Germany. . Fritz Thomas founded the Porzellanfabrik Thomas & Ens in Marktredwitz in 1904. By 1908 the firm was taken over by Rosenthal. The blue mark on this plate (picture 4) was used in and around 1924. The plate measures 8 1/2 inches (21.6cm) in diameter. A U.S. quarter is included in the second picture, to give an accurate impression of the size at a glance. It is in excellent condition with no chips, cracks, scratches, or repairs. There is no discoloration or crazing of the glaze. The gold edge shows minimal wear. Watch for other fine vintage and antique porcelain items that I have to offer this week!
