CT Carl Tielsch Germany 13" Decorative Bowl. Measures 13 1/2" by 9" and is about 3" in height. Very good condition with some rubbing on the gold edges.
This magnificent antique serving bowl was produced by Carl Tielsch & Co. in Altwasser, Germany, during the late Victorian to early Art Nouveau period. Known for competing with elite makers like Meissen, the Tielsch factory was celebrated for its high-quality porcelain and artistic hand-painted designs. This piece features a sophisticated freeform silhouette with dramatic scalloped edges and heavy gold-gilt filigree that follows the ornate relief molding.
The interior is decorated with a delicate spray of summer flowers in soft shades of peach, yellow, and lavender, surrounded by embossed scrolls that catch the light. Measuring a generous 13.5 inches in length and 3 inches in height, this bowl makes a grand statement as a table centerpiece or a prominent cabinet display piece. Its refined elegance perfectly captures the luxury aesthetic that made Carl Tielsch a favorite of European trade counselors.
This item is vintage, over 115 years old. While it appears to be in excellent condition, there is the possibility I may have missed a minor detail. If I missed a major flaw, I would reach out prior to sending it.
