Lovely Dresden Saxony Porcelain Name Place Card Holders – Set of 6 Hand Painted Florals in Original Box 1934-1945
Gift Ideas, PorcelainsLovely Dresden porcelain set of six precious name place card holders in their original box . Detailed and unique hand painting on each place card includes hand-painted floral bouquets and gold trim. Marked on the reverse with a “lamb” maker icon and the “Dresden Made in Saxony” mark was used after 1934.
Ambrosius Lamm (engl. “lamb”, hence the mark) opened his porcelain decorating business in 1887. He mainly decorated the items in the well known “Dresden”, “Meissen” and “Kopenhagen” styles but around 1906 his speciality was the “Alt-Dresden” decoration (which represents a special form of flower arrangements) as well as the wide area of Watteau-type decorations and mythology. Shortly after the year 1934, Lamm retired and the business was taken over by his daughter who continued to use the same “lamb” marks. The street upon which the studio had been located was completely destroyed during the Dresden bombings in 1945.
A perfect set for a nostalgic gift, or celebration.
