Paperback / softback

Description

This book explores porcelain wares produced by the Reinhold Schlegelmilch Porcelain Factory [marked R.

S. Prussia], of Suhl, Germany, and sold to America from 1888 through 1900.

The wonderfully molded and decorated plates and platters, tea sets, pitchers, clocks, and decorative objects are described with over 760 beautiful color images.

An entire chapter is devoted to the company's charming toy china sets.

Displayed are wares formed from a variety of molds (including Fleur-de-Lis and Melon) and patterns (outline transfer, King George, and Coraline patterns, to name a few).

Newly discovered mold patterns are included, along with a history of the company's early operations, wholesale and trade catalog pages illustrating wares exported to the United States, the manufacturer's marks employed during this early period, a bibliography, and several appendices.

This book will guide all collectors of Victorian porcelain to recognize the early pieces marked R.

S. Prussia.
