ANTIQUE FISH SET
By Hermann Ohme
Circa 1890

A Beautiful fine porcelain, complete
fish set in excellent unused condition.
There is some wear on the hand painted
gold along the edges, from polishing.
The high gloss glazing shines like a
mirror and the colors are bright and vivid.
There are no cracks, chips, scratches,
stains, crazing, repairs, touch ups, etc..

 It is very hard to notice, but there is
what appears to be a slight imperfection
 worth noting.  Under the right edge of
the platter there is a slight indentation
to the glazing where apparently
 a small flat nick was smoothed
out prior to the glazing process.
It can only be noticed by very closely
examining the underside and does not take
away from the beauty or quality of the piece. 

   This rare complete set includes:                         
                                      
      1 Platter - 23" X 9 1/2" X 1 1/2" high with         
it's pedestal base.                                
 1 Sauce Bowl w/ drip plate - 8 1/4" X 5 1/4"
  X 3 3/4" high with it's pedestal base    
12 plates - (Three of each fish scene.)       
all plates measures 8 5/8 " across    
  and have a pedestal base.  The plates
       that are farther away in the picture appear
smaller but they are all the same size.

Every piece has Hermann Ohme's
trademark under- glaze on the bottom
which includes a Crown over O H
and the word Germany.  They were
made in Silesia, Germany sometime
around the 1880's to 1890's.  Silesia
later became part of Western Poland
and is called Walbrzych.

Engraved on the bottom of Platter is the
number 276 with a line under it and the
number 12 under that.  This may indicate
that this platter was the 12th one made out
of a total of 276 pieces produced.

The scenes show various and beautifully
detailed multi-colored fish in light blue
water with plant-life and clouds.
The outer perimeters of each piece has
raised ornate scrolling and the color
turns from bright white to cobalt blue with
real hand painted gold along the edges.

This is an extremely rare find and I have
never seen this overall design before.
This is also the most beautiful and well
preserved antique fish set I have ever seen.
It would make a great addition to any
collection or a wonderful display for
a fine restaurant.

The set comes from a large private collection
of various antiques that has recently been
taken out of storage after more than 40 years.
I will continue listing more and more pieces
from the collection as I find the time.

There is no hidden reserve price.
Bid with confidence as all items are
guaranteed authentic and as described.
I do refund returns.  See return policy.
Please take a moment to read the nice
feedback other buyers have left for me.

All pieces will be very carefully packed
and shipped within two business days
via insured USPS Priority Mail.
 (No charge for packing or handling.)

Feel free to contact me with any questions
you may have.  I am not an expert, but I will
answer your questions promptly, honestly
and to the best of my knowledge.

Thanks and Happy Bidding.
