This rare series of cup and saucer of Art Nouveau period by Rosenthal is extremely refined. The white porcelain is thin, weightless, has relief and is finely hand decorated with flowers in a combination of colours and gold.
The Sanssouci model was inspired by the decoration of the walls in the Sanssouci palace, the summer residence of Frederick the Great, King of Prussia.
The proportions and form of the cup are unusual and elegant.
It is quite translucide showing the quality of this early Rosenthal porcelain.
Marked on the bottom with the Rosenthal 1891-1906 mark, the model name Sanssouci and numbered.
Philipp Rosenthal (1855-1937) began business in Germany in 1884. Initially he purchased white ware from the company Hutschenreuther which was resold door to door after being hand-painted by his wife Maria. In 1891, he established a factory in Asch, Bohemia and began production of his own white ware. from 1897 to 1934, Rosenthal acquired further factories in Kronach, Marktredwitz, Selb, Waldenburg, Sophienthal, and Waldershof.
