A collection of porcelain serving ware manufactured by the Graf von Henneberg factory in Ilmenau, Thuringia, produced during the German Democratic Republic era. The set is decorated in the Deutsche Blumen style with transfer-printed floral bouquets featuring pink roses, striped tulips, and blue forget-me-nots. The rims are finished with hand-applied gilding. The lot consists of three rectangular platters with rounded corners, one rectangular dish with moulded ribbed handles at the ends, and an oval serving dish with a matching underplate. The set is completed by two coordinating melamine serving utensils, a spatula and a slotted spoon, which bear a similar floral pattern. The porcelain pieces feature a circular base mark with a crown over a monogram, the words MADE IN GERMAN DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC, and the code B41. Dimensions: Oval dish length approx. 21.5 cm (measured against a visible tape measure). Condition: The collection is in good condition with minor surface wear from use. Small brown spots are present on the upper rim of the rectangular dish with handles. The gilding is generally well-preserved across the set. There are no visible chips, cracks, or evidence of restoration.
