Description: For sale is this set of TWO (2) pretty 9" porcelain cabinet plates featuring a dainty pattern of grapes and leaves with gilt detailing on the raised pattern running around the edge of each plate. These were made by then-German maker PK Silesia - PK stands for Porzellanfabrik (porcelain factory or maker) Koenigszelt (the name of the town in what was then northeastern Germany, and later became part of Poland). Judging by the green eagle backstamps, these likely date to the early 1900s. The main colors are a soft grey, russet and green on white with the gilt highlights. Each plate measures about 9 inches across and .75 inches deep. Their condition is pretty nice for vintage. Both show some light gilt loss. One has a slightly scuffed center (perhaps from storage) and some crazing on the back. The other has fairly significant crazing on the front (kind of X-shaped) that appears to carry through to the back in two places - but doesn't feel like it's in danger of developing into a serious crack. Regardless I will wrap well. Please see the photos for details. These plates came from the 1972 estate of my late great aunt, who owned an antique shop in Avilla, Indiana. Buyer pays shipping. I will pack and ship carefully for you. I do my best to research and describe my items as carefully and accurately as I can. If you see an error or discrepancy in a listing, please let me know! However, all of my sales are as-is. Please view all photos and ask questions in advance, as I do not accept returns except in the case of damage in transit, which must be documented thoroughly. I ask for damaged items to be returned to me.
