• Lot Description
  We are pleased to offer this stunning & early vintage gold floral encrusted rim plate in Gilt wood Frame under glass, from the highly respected German / Bavarian pottery of Hutschenreuther. Our plate sports a wonderful set of inner roundels, with a classic Art Nouveau center well burst. The artistry is fantastic, and the subtle inner gilding validates a factory finish, in lieu of Hutschenreuth blanks finished by such fabled American finishing studios as Pickard and Stouffer. Our collectible plate dates from ca. 1925-1932. In Gilt wood frame with burgundy silk 15x15x1.50. wt 4 pds 2 oz. PROVENANCE: The estate of a Litchfield Connecticut Antique and Fine Art Dealer. C. M. Hutschenreuther was founded in 1814 by Carl Magnus Hutschenreuther (c1780-1845) and based in Hohenberg an der Eger, Bavaria, Germany. After his passing in 1845, the factory was headed by his widow, Johanna and her sons. From 1860 through the end of the Victorian era, they produced finely gilded high quality porcelains that were hand painted. In 1856, Carl's sons Lorenz and Christian founded their own firm in Selb, Bavaria which became known as Lorenz Hutschenreuther, Selb (LHS), with this firm becoming large enough to purchase the Tirschenreuth porcelain factory, in 1927. By the early part of the 20th century, C M Hutschenreuther had seen exponential growth, and to complete its expansion, acquired factories at Altrohlau (Porcelain Factory Moritz Zdekauer ca. 1909), Carl Auvera’s Porcelain Factory Arzberg (1918 / 1919), Porcelain Factory C. Tielsch in Altwasser (1919) and the brothers own Lorenz Hutschenreuther factory in Selb shortly thereafter. Hutschenreuther was eventually absorbed by Rosenthal in the modern era, but their quality can be illustrated in one example: Since 2000 Hutschenreuther survives only as a Rosenthal trademark, however continues to produce porcelain and bone china ranges, including its classic ranges, the most famous of which is Blau Zwiebelmuster, a range based on the Meissen porcelain service of the same name. Hutschenreuther was the only officially licensed manufacturer to be allowed to mass produce this very traditional range by Meissen in the 1930s, even though copies based on the same pattern were allowed by the German courts of law since 1926.
