bavarian china
« on: January 23, 2005, 06:41:46 am »
I recently inherited an extensive but still partial set of Bavarian china for which i'm having trouble tracking down pieces. The pattern has pink roses on the edge (scalloped, no trim) and the maker's mark is a crown over oak laurels with a bow at the bottom, an "M" in the middle (actually looks like 2 greek alphas crossing) and "BAVARIA" beneath, all in green. No one in the family seems to know any more than it is 19th century Bavarian. Does anyone out there know anything about this mark and/or pattern?

I think it's this mark:  (scroll a bit)

http://www.porcelainmarksandmore.firmitas.de

is it like this pattern?  

http://www.replacements.com/webquote/MOSMOS9.htm

So, if that's your mark, you know the era, and that it's Moschendorf, but perhaps we don't yet have the pattern.  If you could post a pic, I could help you search.  I would search:   google.com, and run a generic type search for ----   moschendorf porcelain  ----- see what comes up.  Don't forget to check e-bay germany, or e-bay uk, or even just plain good 'ol e-bay.  

Both Replacements site and another, www.edish.com can help you search and will work from your color photos, front & back.  Best wishes in completing your set.    KB
