Product description
Art Deco Revival Floral Porcelain Centerpiece Bowl – Schaubach Kunst, Germany, Mid-20th Century
An exuberant and highly decorative porcelain centerpiece bowl by Schaubach Kunst, distinguished by its dramatic stepped silhouette, sculptural feet, and richly coloured floral decoration. Combining Art Deco geometry with Rococo-inspired ornamentation, the piece exemplifies the playful elegance that made Schaubach Kunst one of the most distinctive German porcelain manufacturers of the 20th century.
The square bowl rises on four scrolling feet and features a striking architectural form with stepped corners and radiating fluted walls. The vibrant orange-red ground is lavishly decorated with white blossoms accented by hand-applied gold leaves and black floral details, while the central reserve presents a delicate stylised floral motif executed in black and gold.
Particularly appealing is the contrast between the crisp white porcelain body and the richly coloured interior, creating a composition that feels simultaneously theatrical, glamorous, and refined. The combination of sculptural form and hand-finished decoration makes the piece highly effective as both a functional bowl and a display object.
Produced as original hand-decorated porcelain, it reflects Schaubach Kunst's tradition of combining exceptional craftsmanship with expressive decorative design.
