This unique 45 piece hand painted porcelain Bavaria china is a real treasure. You will find the designer’s name painted on the front and back of each plate and on every piece. All are gold trimmed. 87.5 Round Dinner Plates. 65 Round Bread Plates — Only one is pictured d/t ebays photo limit. 4 Round Small Soup/Fruit Bowls. 2 Sugar Pieces With Double Handles, one with lid. What I find so interesting is the different time periods painted on the pieces that range from; 1960, 1961,1962, 1964, and lastly the butter dish 1967. The same hand painted design/pattern was backstamped in different districts of Bavaria, Germany: Plankenhammer- Floss, Tirschenreuth, Alka-Kunst, Bareuther, and Arzberg, Bavaria-Germany. Some pieces have painted backstamps and some do not. It was common then and does not decrease the value or uniqueness of the piece. I mapped the route of all the districts in Bavaria, Germany from northern Arzberg to southern Floss to north-east Tirschenreuth, and back up to Arzberg would have been over 60 miles and traveling by car, it would take about 1 hr and 20 mins. It was so neat to see the paths this person traveled to make their dreams come true. Please see the pictures: One large dinner plate has a small chip, one tea cup and saucer also has a small chip, they are circled in the pictures. One of the sugar dish does not have a lid anymore.
