Looking for info on Libertas Prussia Bowl

Posted by Shelly on November 12, 2007, 6:30 pm

I don't deal a lot in pottery or porcelain but once in a while pick up an interesting piece to sell. I'm having trouble getting some info on a Libertas Prussia Bowl. Replacements has it listed as a number with no pattern name. I have found a few auctions for this pattern but I know not to always rely on them for the correct info. So any information you can give me would be appreciated. It measures 9 3/4" in diameter and is 2 1/2" tall. TIA, Shelly

Hi Shelly, Your bowl is fairly well known. This pattern was made by at least three makers under other names. I had one with six small round individual desserts that matched with the pattern name listed as "Meissen" that I sold as a berry set. Your photo looks as though the bowl has some slight staining and crazing so that will affect the value for your selling. Good luck with it.
