Kahla Porzellan has been producing fine German porcelain since 1844, first in the Thuringia region and continuing through the East German period and beyond. Their still-life decorative plates from the late 20th century are among their most collectible: each one a miniature painting, rendered with the careful hand of a factory that never lost its craft standards even under changing regimes. Five plates, each with a slightly different fruit and nut composition — designed to be displayed as a set.
