Description ~ out of the turn of last century, and from porcelain House of Moritz Zdekauer, comes to you this exquisite cake serving platter - done on dreamy white porcelain and decorated w/a fantastic arrangement of pink roses, this piece is finished w/gold gilding and a scalloped rim - complete w/2 handles, this platter is absolutely perfect for both use and display!
Altrohlau, from where this piece originally came, is now known as part of the Czech Republic. However, the German Porcelain House of C.M. Hutschenreuther purchased Moritz Zdekauer c1909, which blurs to regions from where this platter originates.
Measurements ~ approximately 12" x 13" handle to handle
Dates ~ c1891-1917
Markings ~ underglaze stamp - "MZ Austria" in green ~ please see pictures
Condition ~ Excellent ~ although there is gold loss commensurate w/use and age, the pattern is in good shape - the piece displays wonderfully and is on the hard to find side. Chip and flake free; shelf wear &/or use marking is minimal.
If interested, this piece can be purchased in my store here, or at a discounted price via my blog (US only)
