Title Bisque porcelain plaque of Brandenburg Gate
Nationality German
Period 1959
Sold

This Berlin factory marked (impressed sceptre) bisque porcelain plaque in a box has, on the obverse, an image of the Brandenburg Gate in Berlin, an iconic motif of the city. This would probably have been made as a piece for the tourists of the era.

The plaque is marked on the reverse, 'BERLIN 1959'. The inside of the box lid has been damaged somewhat - a bogus label had been stuck in and has been rather roughly removed.

There is no damage to the porcelain, although there is a tiny brown mark (seemingly on the surface of the glaze) on the top edge near the left corner).

If you want to comment on this item—re quality, age, etc—please email me.

Yes, arrived safe and sound, very nice, and very interesting. Have a couple of friends in the States slavering over the pictures, one of them loves searching old lists, etc. If I can tie it down more definitely will let you know.
