Authentic Krautheim Selb Bavaria Porcelain Serving Bowl


This exquisite 10.5-inch oval bowl is a premier example of German craftsmanship from the renowned Krautheim & Adelberg factory in Selb, Bavaria. Produced between 1922 and 1945, this large-format "Cabinet Bowl" features the highly sought-after reticulated (pierced) lattice rim and luxurious 22k gold gilt accents.


The centerpiece showcases a vivid, hand-painted summer floral bouquet including traditional European field roses and forget-me-nots. The delicate pierced lattice work is structurally perfect, highlighting the superior porcelain quality for which the Selb region is world-famous.
