This exquisite antique serving bowl from Villeroy & Boch, produced at their historic Dresden factory in Germany, dates to the late 19th to early 20th century (circa 1874–1909). Marked with the iconic "Mercury" backstamp—featuring the winged figure of Mercury atop a banner reading "VILLEROY & BOCH" and encircled by "DRESDEN"—this piece exemplifies the brand's premium porcelain craftsmanship during its golden era of elegant tableware.
Crafted from fine ivory porcelain, the bowl boasts a graceful rounded form with two opposing tab handles for easy carrying and presentation. A delicate hand-applied gold rim encircles the edge, adding a touch of refined luxury that catches the light beautifully. The interior is glossy and pristine ivory, ideal for showcasing salads, vegetables, fruit, or as a striking centerpiece on a formal dining table or sideboard.
The pure, timeless design pairs seamlessly with both vintage and modern settings—think Victorian-inspired tablescapes, minimalist Scandinavian dining, or eclectic layered collections. No visible pattern or transfer decoration; its understated elegance lies in the quality of the porcelain and subtle gold accent.
