Rosenthal - Platter - Cornflowers • silver overlay

Rosenthal - bowl - cornflower-blue flowers on a silver overlay, Chippendale • signed 'Kretzschmar' • ca. 1940–1952 - Porcelain Rosenthal footed bowl from Rosenthal, Selb Factory, with hand-painted flowers on a silver overlay. Marked and signed 'Kretzschmar'; nothing documented about this decorator has been found. A Rosenthal footed bowl from Selb in the Chippendale form, ca. 1940–1952, with cornflower-blue flowers on a field of silver overlay. The flowers are hand-painted and signed 'Kretzschmar'. What distinguishes this piece: the silver edge pattern runs beneath the flowers; the rim and foot are also covered in silver. For this object a Buy It Now price has also been set for those who want to acquire it immediately without waiting. In brief: Material: porcelain with silver overlay and hand-painted decoration Dimensions: height 4.5 cm x diameter 14 cm Weight: 180 g Mark: underside marked Rosenthal, Bahnhof Selb, Germany, Chippendale, Handgemalt, with signature Kretzschmar Dating: ca. 1940–1952 Provenance: from the Decaders Gallery collection Description and context: Shallow dish with a wavy, lobed rim with a double edge and a low foot. The interior bears a silver edge pattern of scale-shaped loops. Over it are blue flowers with purple centers and yellow middles, with green leaves. The exterior wall is ivory-glazed. Chippendale is the shape name used by Rosenthal and appears in the brand; the same form exists in many decors. The dating is approximate: dealers place the Bahnhof Selb mark in the years 1936–1952. Condition: Good. Silver overlay on the foot: several spots where it is worn away, the white glaze is exposed. Silver rim: small white spots where silver is missing. All silver parts: black buildup, unpolished. Outer wall: a faint spot. No cracks or broken parts observed. See the photos. Offered as a decorative object, not intended for use with food. In the interior: Fits in a classic or eclectic interior, on a sideboard or in a vitrine display. The silver shines or fades with light, making the blue flowers stand out more. Shipping: Professionally packed in a sturdy box with cushioning material, and for fragile objects a double box. Always insured, shipped with Track and Trace. See feedback from previous buyers. Attribution and sources: Marked Rosenthal, Werk Bahnhof Selb, the former Zeidler factory that purchased Rosenthal in 1917. The decor is a hand-painted factory decoration. A painter 'Kretzschmar' is not documented in any consulted source and is not claimed as an artist. The silver content has not been established and no silver mark was seen.
