Two centuries of German porcelain craft meet in a single plate. The center scene — a hunter on horseback with his hounds riding past a shepherd and his flock — is rendered with the confident detail of old-world pastoral painting.
But what makes this Schumann Arzberg plate truly exceptional is the border: a reticulated Dresden Line-Bouquet design, hand-pierced and painted with vibrant enamel flowers outlined in gold, finished with an intricate gold swirl verge and a heavy gold rim. The combination of figurative scene, openwork border, and multi-technique decoration represents Bavarian porcelain at its most accomplished.
Condition: Excellent condition — no scratches, chips, or defects; gold rim pristine. Decorative only, not for food use. Please review photos closely before purchasing, as all sales are final.
Schumann Arzberg was founded in Bavaria in 1881 and operated for over a century, distributing through their own New York corporation in the 1920s and 30s. Display as a cabinet plate, on a plate stand, or hang it on the wall — this one rewards any angle. A distinguished gift for a collector of European porcelain or old-world decorative arts.
