Since founding his firm in Selb in 1891, Philip Rosenthal Sr. endeavored with great success to join porcelain and art together. Using a variety of different design styles, Rosenthal produced porcelain service, figures, ornaments, and art pieces, each with the highest artistic quality worthy of fine collections. With over 350 beautiful pictures, this book provides a history of the Rosenthal family and company, a description of the entire porcelain production proces, artists' biographies, and tips for collectors. The stars of course are the pieces themselves. Current market values are given to help the collector. AUTHOR:
