Meissen Porcelain 1904 Factory Catalog Now Available in Digital Format

Amis Des Artistes announces new product to widen access to rare porcelain catalog
 
July 16, 2011 - PRLog -- The ebook-digital reproduction of the Meissen Porcelain 1904 Factory Catalog is now available for download through www.amisdesartistes.com. This 1904 Meissen antiques catalog offers collectors a rare glimpse into European porcelain of the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

All printed material issued by the “Koeniglich Sachsische Porzellen –Manufactur in Meissen” in the last century is scarce, but the rarest and most deluxe of these publications is the hardbound large-format 1904 catalog printed in a single edition for issue directly to the most important Meissen distributors in major European cities. This was a time of prosperity in Europe at which Meissen porcelain aimed to expand its production, and the publication of this very deluxe trade catalog was presumably one of its first initiatives toward these ends. Issued in an edition of just a few hundred copies, original examples of this catalog are practically unobtainable; however the Amis Des Artistes’ ebook provides a digital version of the complete catalog in its original format.

Features of the e-book include:

* 94 plates with Meissen Marks, the Crossed Swords
* Ability to zoom images at 2-3 times their original size to see fine details and decorations
* Interior pages showing Meissen figurines, candelabras, clocks and other decorative pieces
* 300dpi resolution
