Amazing Art Nouveau Jewelled Plate #1

This is a very rare and stunning Art Nouveau / Jugendstil plate made by KPM in the early 20th century. It is hand painted with three superb larger floral designs along the rim that are painted in a translucent raised enamel likely one of the Seger colors and then partially highlighted with gilding all surrounded by a raised gold design. There are also three smaller designed in between with similar raised enamel color designs and gilding. As Art Nouveau as it comes - just amazing and extremely rare! Nice gold trim to the rim edge and the edge of the center bowl partially raised as well. The ground color around the well of the plate is slightly yellow / green which is very nice. I have recently sold two similar pieces but other than that I have only come across a handful of pieces over all these year of this pattern / design so it is something very special! The raised enamel effect does not show well in the pictures but it is stunning and quite proper for this period in porcelain. The piece is in perfect condition! It is just over 1 inch tall and 9.75 inches in diameter. The plate is marked underneath with the under glaze blue scepter, the red orb mark, a gold painter's mark 43 and the usual impressed marks of the period as shown as well as Made in Germany in a red rectangle. Please email me for more information or other pictures.
