About the Item
A refined antique German porcelain display plate featuring a delicate pink-to-white cameo-style ground and a raised classical profile medallion at the rim. The softly graduated pink glaze, combined with crisp white relief decoration, reflects the high level of craftsmanship associated with turn-of-the-century German art porcelain.
The plate is finished with a gently molded rim and a sculptural applied medallion depicting a neoclassical female profile, a popular motif in late 19th–early 20th century European decorative arts. The palette and relief work evoke influences from Neo-Classical and Jugendstil design, produced during a period when German porcelain houses were competing at an international level.
This piece was clearly intended as a decorative or cabinet plate, rather than utilitarian tableware, and would have been displayed on a stand or within a curated interior.
Maker
Marks
The reverse bears several important markings:
A German “Musterschutz” (design protection) mark, numbered No. 4716
→ Musterschutz registrations were used in Germany primarily circa 1890–1910, indicating a protected decorative design.
A handwritten factory or decorator notation, typical of German porcelain workshops of the period.
A crowned emblem mark, consistent with German or Central European porcelain manufactories active at the turn of the century.
While the exact factory cannot be definitively attributed without an archival reference, the marks and quality strongly suggest German production, possibly from a respected regional manufactory producing art porcelain for the export and domestic luxury markets.
Country of Origin: Germany
Date: circa 1895–1915
Condition
Very good antique condition with no cracks or structural damage observed. Minor age-appropriate surface wear consistent with decorative display use. Glaze and relief decoration remain crisp and well-preserved.
Styling
Display Ideas:
Display on a plate stand within a china cabinet or vitrine.
Style with other cameo or relief porcelain for a layered European look.
Beautiful against dark shelving or lacquered walls, where the pink glaze subtly glows.
Works especially well in traditional, French, English, or grandmillennial interiors.

Ceramic Nippon Morimura Brothers Decorative Dish Vide Poche or Catchall, 1800s
Located in Oklahoma City, OK
A rare find, this decorative oval shaped Nippon catchall by Morimura Brothers is a fabulous example of early Japanese ceramics. A lovely ceramic dish for holding change or other items, it will be a fabulous chintz addition to any nightstand or foyer table. Highly decorated in bouquets of pink and yellow flowers, the center of the dish is the showstopper. A chinoiserie bird in flight with a pink breast and yellow, blue and green feathers takes center stage. Surrounding him are more bouquets of flowers and a single pink and blue bird. The rim of the dish is encircled with a blue ribbon adorned with intricately painted flowers such as white daisys and pink and yellow peonies. Two handles are at each end for carrying. The handles and the rim are both painted in gold.
The back stamp at bottom reads in green, “M-in-Wreath, hand-painted ("M" stands for importer,
Morimura Bros.); Nippon.”
Mark used since 1911.
The practice of painting of the word “Nippon” on ceramic bases began in 1891 in response to the U.S. McKinley Tariff Act, which forbade the import of items that weren’t “plainly marked...
