Seltmann Weiden Bavaria – Wien Décor
This vintage serving platter comes from Seltmann Weiden, the German porcelain manufacturer based in Weiden in Bavaria.
The “Wien” décor gives the piece its distinctive traditional character, with delicate blue floral decoration against a white porcelain background. The combination of the floral bouquet and elegant oval form makes it a particularly versatile piece for collectors of German porcelain and vintage European tableware.
The West Germany marking places the production within the period between 1949 and 1990, before German reunification, making the backstamp an interesting detail for collectors interested in the history and provenance of vintage German porcelain.
