Many often confuse the German Jasperware pieces as English Wedgewood. This one is confirmed German & most likely out of the aforementioned two, it would be Volkstedt. In Germany, this style was called "Jugendstil, " or the young, new style.
The organic, flowing design here is also reminiscent of the 18th C. Rococo period, whose influences are evident in the Nouveau style. This antique plaque was likely made by Volkstedt, Triebner, Ens & Co. Volkstedt is located near the famous city of Rudolstadt, and the porcelain heritage of this region began in the 18th Century. In fact, hard-paste porcelain was re-discovered in this area independently of the experiments at Meissen, in Saxony, Germany.Porcelain production began at Volkstedt in 1760, predating French factories such as Limoges. The exquisite detail work is breath-taking with amazing delicate hands & fingers & incredible 3-Dimensional facial details to all 4 faces!!! CONDITION: APPEARS FLAWLESS & READY TO PROUDLY HANG!
NO CHIPS, CRACKS, BREAKS, OR REPAIRS. ANY INCONSISTENCIES NI BLUE SURFACE ARE AS TO BE EXPECTED FACTORY AS-MADES.
