this piece bears the rare selb "s" mark, indicating production at the outsourced factory in selb (circa 1943–1957).

the design is a perfect expression of bauhaus-influenced modernism: clean lines, pure white porcelain, and timeless, functional elegance.

design philosophy: true to the bauhaus mantra "form follows function," the oval bowl impresses with the consistent omission of a traditional rim. The surface flows seamlessly to the outer edge, lending it a timeless, architectural precision.

collector information: a collectible example of german modernist porcelain with bauhaus influence—an elegant object for collectors of classic modern tableware—ideal as a serving bowl, fruit bowl, or minimalist decorative piece.

current kpm list price: €139 (!)
