AL-KA Kunst Kronach Bavaria, AK Kaiser - August Alboth & Georg Kaiser - Serving plate - Hand-Embellished with Silver Overlay - Porcelain - Rococo-style Jugendstil

Rare Early AL-KA (Kaiser) Decorative Plate – Hand-Embellished Green Porcelain with Silver Overlay, Germany, c. 1930s An exquisite decorative plate from the early production of AL-KA Kunst Kronach Bavaria, the predecessor to AK Kaiser Porzellan. This elegant piece represents the refinement of interwar German porcelain craftsmanship, where ornamental artistry met restrained modern luxury. The plate features a deep forest-green ground, delicately hand-decorated with silver floral and foliate motifs, and finished with an ornate, silvered Rococo-style rim. The combination of rich color and metallic detailing gives it a jewel-like radiance—subtle yet striking. The underside bears the green AL-KA Kunst Kronach Bavaria hallmark, used between the 1920s and 1940s, confirming its early production and collectible value. Details: * **Manufacturer:** AL-KA Kunst Kronach (later AK Kaiser) * **Origin:** Bavaria, Germany * **Date:** circa 1930s * **Material:** Porcelain with hand-applied silver decoration * **Color:** Deep green with silver highlights * **Finish:** Glossy glaze with metallic reliefs * **Dimensions:** Diameter 29.5 cm, Height 4 cm * **Condition:** Very good vintage condition.

About AL-KA / AK Kaiser: Founded in Kronach, Bavaria, AL-KA was established by August Alboth and Georg Kaiser in the early 20th century and became known for its exceptional decorative porcelain. By the mid-century, the firm evolved into AK Kaiser, producing some of the finest porcelain of postwar Germany—blending historic craftsmanship with modern design. Early AL-KA pieces, such as this plate, represent the bridge between Art Deco refinement and mid-century elegance, and are highly sought after by collectors. This plate can serve as a decorative wall piece or a centerpiece platter, bringing a touch of classic European sophistication to any interior. --- General Information Please explore our profile for more vintage vases!
