<td width="100%">
This beautiful, deep colored flow blue plate has a rare mark. Despite being produced in what is now modern day France, Sarreguemines, during the time this plate was produced this part of France was under German occupation. As such the mark is labeled "Made in Germany".

The pattern is detailed and has really saturated through to the back of the plate which is visible in the photo.

As far as condition this plate shows its age and travels. It has no repairs but there are numerous chips visible from the top all along the rim. There is also an area along the rim, but on the underside of the plate where the glaze has worn away for several consecutive inches in about a 1 cm wide line. This issue is not visible from the top view. There are at least two very small manufacturing flaws (less glaze) on the underside. The gilding has worn considerably and there are surface scratches from wear. Crazing is evident on both sides of the plate. There is a 1.5" hairline crack visible on the underside of the plate.
