Modern luxury: the history of porcelain wall plates

Until the turn of the century, everything made of porcelain was pure luxury. However, decorative plates in particular, which adorned walls or display cabinets, represented wealth that was intended to be displayed from the 18th century onwards. It was above all the elaborate decorations and high-quality craftsmanship that made the wall plates so valuable. At the beginning of the 20th century, porcelain could be produced more cheaply, so that even the middle classes could afford porcelain wall plates. At the time, they often served as souvenirs, symbolized homeliness and their design was influenced by cities, countries and cultures. Their artistic significance diminished as the wall plates with their stereotypical depictions and kitschy motifs were seen more as decorative objects.

In recent years, the wall plate has experienced a renaissance, and MEISSEN is also reinterpreting the tradition and demonstrating a modern sense of luxury with wall plate series such as "Faces" and "Flying Jewels". The variety and artistry of the motifs and styles that have been created over the centuries, inspired by the respective eras, make wall plates real collector's items as well as decorative elements in modern living spaces.

MEISSEN wall plates: collections that tell stories

The colourful birds are captured in a very naturalistic way on our wall plates from the "Flying Jewels" series, while the characters from the Italian Comedy are immortalized in the collection of the same name. Those who prefer a graphic, minimalist and modern look will love the wall plates with motifs by Kandinsky! No matter which designs you choose, they all work individually, in series, can be staged as a statement piece or serve as an eye-catcher between paintings and photos. You can also combine your wall plates with elegant porcelain chandeliers and the matching tableware set. The "MEISSEN Blue Treasures" service, for example, picks up on the maritime theme, which can also be found in the "Green fighting fish" wall plate. We would be happy to advise you on choosing the right wall plate for your living space.
