Made in Arzberg, Bavaria, by the Carl Schumann porcelain factory, this small bowl dates to circa 1918–1929. Display it on a dresser, vanity or china shelf, where its octagonal, scalloped shape and colorful floral spray can be admired.
- Hand-painted flowers: Pink roses and yellow blossoms add soft color to the porcelain.

- Pierced design: The openwork basketweave edge gives the bowl an airy, decorative look.
- Factory marks: The underside bears a blue Schumann Bavaria lion crest and gold artist initials “M.R.S.”
- Porcelain body: Fine Bavarian hard-paste porcelain gives this antique dish its classic china appeal.
- Condition: The pierced rim is structurally intact, with no chips, cracks, fleabites or repairs; the gold rim has minimal micro-wear.
- Age-related detail: Light surface crazing appears on the underside, while the floral painting remains vibrant and crisp.
Use it to hold small trinkets beside your mirror, or add it to an antique china collection. Its hand-painted details bring a graceful, old-world accent to a quiet corner of your home.
Condition is noted carefully, because every piece has lived a life before this one.
