Rosenthal Bavaria Porcelain Bowl

Description:
This is a small Rosenthal Bavaria porcelain bowl, approximately 7 cm high and 8 cm in diameter. The bowl features delicate floral designs with gold accents on the rim. The bowl is supported by three ornate feet with a pearl-like detail around its base.

History and Background

Rosenthal is a prestigious German porcelain manufacturer founded in 1879 by Philipp Rosenthal. The "Rosenthal Bavaria" mark suggests this piece was produced between the early 1900s to mid-20th century when Rosenthal was producing high-quality decorative porcelain pieces for export markets, particularly to Europe and North America.

The detailed floral patterns, gold trim, and delicate construction are characteristic of Rosenthal's high-end craftsmanship. Such pieces were commonly used for decorative purposes or as part of fine dining sets.

Condition

The piece is in excellent condition with no visible cracks, chips, or fading. The floral design and gold rim remain intact, and the porcelain’s glaze appears pristine.

Value Estimation

Based on similar Rosenthal Bavaria porcelain pieces in the market, your item would likely hold a value in the range of $40 - $80 USD for casual collectors or decorative buyers. For a buyer specializing in Rosenthal porcelain or Bavarian ceramics, it may reach closer to $100 USD or more depending on the rarity of the pattern.

Factors Affecting Value

  • Condition: Excellent condition significantly increases desirability.
  • Design & Pattern: Floral patterns with gold accents are highly sought after.
  • Size & Rarity: Smaller Rosenthal decorative pieces can vary in value, but intricate, well-preserved designs command higher prices.
  • Marking: The “Rosenthal Bavaria” mark authenticates the item and ties it to a desirable historical period for collectors.

Recommendation

For an accurate valuation or if you are seeking to sell this item at auction or through an antique dealer, consider contacting:

  • Porcelain and ceramic specialty appraisers
  • Rosenthal collectors’ groups
  • Antique dealers familiar with German porcelain
