How do you identify Bavarian china?

1 Answer
To identify Bavarian china, flip the piece over and study its markings. Many pieces from the region bear the names of their places of origin, so seeing cities like Arzberg, Bayreuth, Schwarzenbach, Selb or Tettau on a piece is a good indication that they originated from Bavaria. A certified appraiser or knowledgeable antiques dealer can be of assistance as well. Find a range of Bavarian china on 1stDibs.
