#3912 JKW Carlsbad

Love Story

Dinner Set

Lot #3912 is SOLD

JKW is for Josef Kuba Porcelain Factory and Decorating Shop.   Established in Carlsbad around 1930 and then re-established after World War II in Wiesau, Bavaria, Germany.  (Source: Directory of European Porcelain by Danckert, page 496).  With only the word Carlsbad in the mark, we believe this set to be late 1940's (after World War II and before the division of Germany in late 1949 into East and West).  Later marks of JKW include the words Western Germany, which these do not have.  Notice that the JKW mark is stamped over another mark.  That was typical of decorating shops to use whiteware produced by other factories and then attempt to cover up that mark with their own decorating mark.

 

We purchased this set from a German family who received them around 1960 from the owner of the factory.  They were still packed in their original boxes, straw and all.  At the point that we made the purchase, most of the original packing had already been discarded, so we were able to salvage only the two paper labels which are shown below and seem to indicate the name of the shape (Fanny Elbler) and color (Margrit Rose) of the set.  This set has NEVER BEEN USED and is in pristine condition. 

Six place settings and most of the serving pieces are currently on Layaway.

All additional place settings and pieces are now SOLD.

Below are a few group closeups, followed by individual listings of each category of items and the prices per piece.
