Vintage Unmarked German Chocolate Pot

Antiques : Ceramics, Porcelain : German : R.S

 

I believe this old chocolate pot is a piece from the Reinhold Schlegelmilch factories. It does not have the RS Prussia or RS Germany wreath mark but it has all of the style and quality of a fine piece. The blank has nice raised detail and it has a decorative base and handle. The painted design is a bit unusual with round pods that look like spotted snowballs with enameled gold stems. It is done in shades of green and silver with a pearl luster and a faint speckling of gold along the top edge and lid edge. The lid has a nicely detailed open handle. There are no marks on the bottom as previously indicated.

It measures about 8 1/8" in high to the top of the lid's handle. It is in good condition with mild wear. At the most bulbous part of the pot the finish shows rub wear. I has shown a close-up of this in the photos. There is a small flake off the bottom edge of the lid which is not visible from the top that is also shown in one of the photos.

The pictures are not shown at actual size. Please refer to the description for actual measurements.
