Plaue Schierholz Large Musical Putti Centrepiece, C.1900

19th century
For Sale by Ritas Bazaar
Description

A finely detailed early twentieth-century musical centrepiece by C. G. Schierholz & Sohn, Plaue, dating to around 1900. The wide reticulated bowl sits above a substantial wreath of applied roses and foliage, and below it four musical putti form a complete ensemble. The modelling and pastel palette are typical of Plaue work from this period, and such pieces were classified by the factory as “Prachtstücke”, intended for formal interiors and special occasions.

These elaborate centrepieces occupied the upper tier of the Plaue manufactory’s output and remain desirable examples of Dresden/Rococo Revival design.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Plaue Schierholz porcelain centrepieces are decorative German ceramic vessels from Thuringia, characterised by pierced lattice work, applied dimensional floral encrustations, and sculpted putti or cherubs surrounding the pedestal base.

These pieces were crafted from hard-paste porcelain, hand-moulded with pierced lattice openings, decorated with individually hand-formed applied ceramic flowers, and finished with polychrome glazes and gilded accents before firing.

Authentic items typically feature underglaze blue factory makers marks on the underside, such as the crown or crossed mark associated with Von Schierholz, alongside fine detail on the hand-modelled applied floral petals and figures.

Position the piece as a focal point on a formal dining table, sideboard top, or fireplace mantelpiece to add sculptural texture and historical detail to dining spaces or living rooms.

Dust gently using a soft, dry artists brush to reach the gaps between applied petals, avoiding liquid immersion or harsh cleaning solutions that could damage delicate gilding and cold-paint details.
