Antique Porcelain MZ Austria Portrait or Cabinet Plate signed "Constance"

About the Item

This antique portrait plate was made by the MZ Austria porcelain factory in circa 1908 in the late Victorian style. The plate features a young blonde female in a provocative pose for the time period, signed "Constance" in the lower right. Surrounding the portrait is a gilded band accented with gold beading. The outer edges of the plate are hand painted with a series of well executed, large red and pink roses. The plate is clearly signed with the double headed "MZ Austria" back stamp that dates this piece to between the years of 1880-1908. This is an early example of the 'Constance' portrait plate series produced by his factory known for its fine porcelain, as the later renditions did not have hand painted flowers on the bordering surround.
