How do you identify Dresden china?

How do you identify Dresden china?
To identify Dresden porcelain, search for a maker's mark. Early pieces will typically feature a T positioned over a fish. Those produced after 1902 will usually showcase intertwined S and P initials placed above the word "Dresden." If you need help with the identification process, consult a knowledgeable antiques dealer or certified appraiser. On 1stDibs, explore a collection of Dresden porcelain.
