Antique German Lusterware Serving Bowl by Celebrate
This is a vintage German lusterware porcelain serving bowl, likely produced in the early to mid-20th century (circa 1920s-1940s) by the 'Celebrate' brand. The bowl measures approximately 9 inches in diameter and features a distinctive shallow, multi-sided geometric rim. The construction utilizes high-fired white porcelain finished with iridescent luster glazes in alternating bands of pale seafoam green and shimmering amber-gold. The central well contains an intricate polychrome floral decal depicting stylized fruit and foliage in deep blues, oranges, and greens against a black background, framed by a crisp white circle. The craftsmanship is typical of German export porcelain from this period, characterized by a smooth, high-gloss finish and thin-walled structure. Visible condition appears good with the luster glaze retaining its reflective quality, though minor surface scratches and shelf wear on the base are expected given its age. No major chips, cracks, or professional repairs are immediately evident in the provided images. The 'Celebrate Made in Germany' mark on the reverse (as noted in the listing text) serves as a key indicator of quality and origin for collectors of Art Deco-era ceramics.
