Each plate has an intricately pierced (reticulated) border, a hallmark of V&B’s late‑19th‑century decorative work.

All six plates carry the impressed VBS mark (Villeroy‑Boch‑Schramberg) along with impressed mold numbers 1313 and 9, consistent with authenticated examples from the Schramberg, Germany factory circa 1890. The glaze palette, relief style, and numbering match other documented V&B Art Nouveau majolica pieces.

At 6.5 inches across with a gently raised profile, these plates are ideal for display, wall mounting, or use as small dessert or bread plates. Light, age‑appropriate wear is present, including a few tiny underside nicks, but no cracks or structural issues.
A rare opportunity to acquire a complete set of six in a highly collectible V&B pattern.
