These pieces embody the vibrancy and luxury of Bavarian porcelain during the 1920s and 1930s. Their intricate 24kt gold overlay, encasing the elegant blue and white design, adds depth and opulence. The hallmark on the reverse side, authenticating them as Rosenthal, underscores their prestige and historical significance.

Rosenthal's history is as remarkable as its craftsmanship. Philipp Rosenthal, the company's founder, faced forced withdrawal from his enterprise in 1934 due to his Jewish heritage amidst rising nationalism. Despite these adversities, Rosenthal's legacy endured. The company retained its reputation for exceptional design while navigating political upheavals, showcasing resilience and artistry. Under Philipp's son Philip Rosenthal, the company flourished post-war, collaborating with iconic designers and solidifying its status as a premier name in fine porcelain. Each bowl and saucer is not only a piece of artistic excellence but a reflection of this incredible historical journey.
