Story
The Schlegelmilch family established a porcelain empire in the late 19th century that became a staple of American bridal registries and mail-order catalogs.
Maker / Origin
Reinhold Schlegelmilch opened his factory in Suhl in 1869, naming the enterprise in honor of his father, Erdmann.
Condition & Value
The porcelain appears to be in very good condition with no visible cracks or significant chips. While 'RS Prussia' (red mark) pieces can fetch hundreds or thousands, 'RS Germany' (green mark) was produced in higher volumes.
