Holly Neuzierat Plate

This is a cute plate made by KPM in the early 20th century. It is hand painted with the rarest design on these plates of this style - the branch / leaf motif. This one is of branch of a Holly bush including its leaves and berries which in combination with that amazing gold trim makes this one really superb plate! Kind of the German version of the Flora Danica :) Just an amazingly detailed painting and the rim painted with gold on a raised design it is just spectacular. The plate is in great condition with just one small scratch to a leaf but it displays perfectly. The piece is 7.375 inches in diameter so the smaller version and 0.75 inches tall. The plate is marked underneath with the under glaze blue scepter, the red orb mark, some black numbers, a painter's and a gilder's mark, the usual impressed marks of this period and the name of the design - Stechpalme in German - Holly in black script. I have other matching plates if anyone would like a pair or a set of these. These are perfect for display! The last picture shows what I did with some of them in my house.
