Reticulated Ceres Service Plate #1

This is a superb reticulated plate made by KPM during WWI. The plate is from the famous Ceres Service designed by Theodor Schmuz-Baudiss for the 150 year anniversary of the manufactory. It is the most famous of the Jugenstil services I believe and the name comes from the Roman goddess of fertility and agriculture. Hence the cornucopias, etc. This plate here is the reticulated version which is really nice! The plate is in perfect condition which helps :) It is 0.875 inches tall and 8.5 inches in diameter. The set was first designed in 1912 for the anniversary of the manufactory so this is a nice an early version! It is marked underneath with the underglaze blue scepter mark, the red orb, the green TSB mark, the black iron cross as well as the usual painter's and impressed marks. A truly superb piece! Please email me for more information or other pictures.

Price is $599
