A charming set of four Austrian porcelain luncheon or dessert plates, each measuring 7.5 inches square with softly scalloped rims edged in gold. The pattern pairs two complementary florals: a spray of light purple asters on the left and a graceful branch of yellow forsythia on the right, both rendered with delicate, naturalistic shading and highlighted with fine gilt accents.
The plates have a subtly shaped silhouette—an elegant departure from standard round forms—and display beautifully whether stacked or spread across a table. A refined example of late-19th-century Austro-Bohemian porcelain, each plate is marked Marx & Gutherz Carlsbad, a factory known for high-quality blanks decorated for the European and American export markets.
JUNE'S THOUGHTS
I love the soft, poetic balance on these plates—the cool lavender asters paired with the warm golden forsythia feels like early spring captured in porcelain. The scalloped shape gives them a gentle femininity, and they stack so beautifully that even when they’re not in use, they become part of your décor. A sweet, quiet pleasure for your table or display shelf.
