Circa: 1920's
Condition: Excellent Original Condition
Size: Diameter of Plate - 12 1/8” Depth - 2”
Manufacturer: after Maresch
This is a large, rare, and unusual mythological decorative porcelain ceramic plate / dish. The center of the plate features a young boy holding an oar and fishing net. The outer edge of the plate features a very ornate design. Incorporated within, are fish, mermaids, and women wearing fancy Egyptian-like accessories. The entire top of the plate is highly embossed with great detail. The front of this plate retains its original dark bronze finish and the back of the plate retains its original black finish. The bottom of the plate sits on a small pedestal-type rim. This plate offers the option to be hung on the wall with its original, old wire hanger, to sit on the tabletop, or to be displayed on a plate stand. The underneath of the plate is inscribed, "after Maresch" with the numbers and letter "34x" underneath that. There’s also a number "1" inscribed. The underneath of this plate has several minor scratches and a little wear. The far outer rim, near the bottom, on the top of the plate has very slight age-appropriate wear and the center picture of the boy is just slightly worn as well. There are no dings, cracks, or repairs to this plate. Overall though, I would say this very special antique plate is in excellent original condition with a beautiful old patina. Circa 1920’s. |
