Description
R.S. Prussiais one of the best-known names in antique porcelain.
Given by a plantation owner as a wedding gift to his only daughter in 1910, this fabulous CHOCOLATE OR TEA SET in RS PRUSSIA CHINA is complete with the PITCHER (9" tall, including the top), SUGAR (with top) & CREAMER, and SIX SMALL CUPS. All marked "RS Prussia."
Note: A little plate (used for small cookies, paper trash, or tea bags) is included as a lagniappe, although it is not marked and may not have belonged to the original set.
Reinhold Schlegelmilch [R.S.] produced what collectors consider to be R.S. Prussia in his factory in Suhl, Germany, from the late 1800s through World War I.
R.S. Prussia pieces were and continue to be highly valued, though individual pieces may be more or less expensive depending on a number of factors. A complete chocolate set is a rare find.
Throughout its history, the R.S. Prussia company manufactured a wide range of china pieces and sets, including teapots, cups and saucers, plates, sugar bowls, and even chocolate sets, as offered here. Most pieces were decorated with imitation opals, gold, or iridescent finishes and feature paintings of flowers, portraits, or scenes from nature which were applied through lithographic transfers. Later pitchers and vases pieces, influenced by Art Nouveau, had arms and handles with designs similar to the borders on posters by Alphonse Mucha.
