Lovely, Mint Weimar Oyster Plate - Delft Blue
It was a German alchemist who cracked the recipe for hard paste porcelain, in the 1700s. From Meissen, in Germany, porcelain know-how later spread throughout Europe -- to Austria, France (Limoges), England and beyond. Thus, it is fitting that some of the best porcelain and best decoration came (and still does come) from Germany. This beautiful oyster plate exhibits a characteristically fine porcelain translucence adorned with lovely decorations from the seaside. The porcelain relief is exquisite, as well. The piece dates from 1900-1920. A plate from the same under glaze mark and the same mold, but with different blue and white decoration, is featured in Snyder’s book, Collecting Oyster Plates (© 2002) on page 59, with a value estimate of $595-655. Oyster Plates (© 1993) by Jim and Vivian Karsnitz features an unmarked twin of this plate on page 93. Though this piece harkens back to Victorian times, it is in absolutely mint condition. It features five radial oyster wells and a center sauce well. It would be a wonderful addition to any oyster plate collection or a prized acquisition for any collector of fine china with a special passion for blue and white.
