Cake Stand Maria Pink Rose

Since 1916, the name Maria has stood for one of Rosenthal's most popular and successful porcelain lines. For generations, it's been the porcelain for weddings and other festive occasions: elegant and timeless. The special charm of this design lies in the balanced combination of classic and romantic elements - such as the delicate pomegranate relief. A silver tea service from around 1815 served as the model for Maria. The company's founder, Philipp Rosenthal, acquired it on a trip to England. Maria was named after Philipp Rosenthal's wife. The classic, polyhedral base is framed by a delicate, pomegranate relief that takes up elements of the Biedermeier style. It's the right-angled handles and the contrasting, square surfaces with their interplay of light and shadow that give this shape its characteristic look. As early as the 1920s and 1930s, Maria was a very comprehensive service with around 170 different parts. Today, Maria is still one of the most comprehensive tableware series of all time. Rosenthal products impress with their design, functionality, quality and constant innovation. For over 140 years, Rosenthal has been producing porcelain with the utmost craftsmanship.
