Rare R.S. Prussia Bowl 1905-1910
 |
Rare R. S. Prussia bowl mold # 106. Antique Reinhold Schlegelmilch porcelain manufactured between 1905-1910, marked with red & green Prussia Wreath & Star.
Mold #106 (Mary Frank Gaston Collectors Encyclopedia of R. S. Prussia) - "five recessed domes alternating with fleur-de-lys sections" bowl measures 10.5 inches wide and 3.25 inches tall.
The center pattern is Rose transfer, one bloomed and one not yet bloomed pink rose and one yellow rose with green leaf trim. Gold paint on edges is in good shape for its age, there is some minor gold loss. Bowl has a hairline crack and repair near top edge as evident in the two photos.
This bowl was part of a designers estate and was in storage for many years until now.
The close up photo of the mark was taken on microscope mode, hence the white LED dots. There is some reflection in the photos that could not be avoided and still use natural sunlight.

This is a really neat blog, Laura! I love the way you combine the history of pieces with the pieces themselves. My grandmother loved ceramics and knew them well, but that gene bypassed me. I remember going to the stock market in Norton and she'd go to the folks selling carnival glass or whatever and pick her pieces. Great job!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for your comment Jeanne! It really means a lot. I think it is cool that your Grandmother was in to ceramics! Thanks again, more to come.
DeleteNice piece of porcelain, it is possible to find more object like this in Europe. In Poland and Germany you can see more on the internet auctions :

The factory was located in Poland in Tulowice city (name of the city before WWII - Tillowitz). The oryginal factory does not exist since long time. But there is lot of collectors who love Tulowice porcelain.
