Set of 3 Rosenthal Moss Rose Porcelain Plates w/Beaded Sterling Silver Rims

Circa 1950’s/Selb, Germany

The Rosenthal company was founded by Philipp Rosenthal in 1879 in Bavaria, Germany, initially focusing on porcelain painting before establishing its own manufacturing facilities. Over the decades, the firm earned an international reputation for combining traditional German porcelain craftsmanship with modern artistic designs. Their collaborations with renowned artists and designers made Rosenthal porcelain highly sought after by collectors worldwide.

During the mid-20th century, manufacturers frequently paired fine porcelain with precious metals like sterling silver to create elegant tabletop accessories. Items such as these coasters, often encased in decorative silver rims with beaded detailing, were staples of mid-century home entertaining and sophisticated dining rooms. The delicate floral decals, particularly rose motifs, reflected the enduring popularity of romantic and botanical themes in post-war European ceramics.
