A “Mignon” Pattern Plate by Z.S. & Co.

Circa 1890-1920
Zeh, Scherzer & Co. (Z.S. & Co.) was a prominent porcelain manufacturer based in Rehau, Bavaria, Germany, operating from 1880 until 1992. They were known for producing a wide range of high-quality porcelain items, including dinnerware, decorative plates, and figurines, often featuring floral motifs and gilded accents.

The "Mignon" pattern, characterized by its delicate floral designs, particularly roses, and often accented with gold trim, was a popular offering during the late Victorian and Edwardian eras. Such pieces were widely exported and appreciated for their aesthetic appeal and craftsmanship, fitting well into the prevailing tastes for elegant tableware and decorative items in homes across Europe and America.
