Title: Vintage Schirnding Bavaria Decorative Wall Plate "Venezia-Piazza S. Marco"
Manufacturer: Schirnding Bavaria between 1964 and 1974.
Diameter: 23.5cm.
Info: Scalloped and gilded edge with vignettes of Venice.
The central image depicts the Piazaa S. Marco in Venice.
The border contains images of the Rialto Bridge, the Torre Del Oroglio (the Clock Tower) and the La Salute statue in Venice.
Lorenz Reichel in 1901 founded a decoration studio in the small town of Schirnding, which at that time had a population of around 600 people. Three years later he already produced his own whiteware and further expanded business so that by 1906 the factory utilized six modern round kilns, had electric lighting and an own link to the local railroad network.
After the reunification of Germany in 1989/1990, the already declining German porcelain industry encountered more and more problems.
The Schirnding factory was forced to look for new partners and business relationships and from 1991 onwards cooperated with the British Royal Stafford China Ltd. from Stoke-on-Trent when it started to produce Bone China ware.
Condition: Good, no chips or crazing on a well maintained plate, the edges and pattern have some slight rubbing, the centre image is very good with some minor scratches.
Price: R 245.00 Inc Vat.
