Welcome to the Gerold Porzellan Collector's Website.

For those of you who are visiting for the first time, let me explain that this website is for informational purposes only.   Please see my Disclaimer.  The Photo Gallery contains pictures donated by people from all over the world of their Gerold Porzellan collectibles, thereby providing a means for others to identify their own Gerold items.  This website is a photo gallery of over a thousand photos which I have compiled over the course of 14 years. I do not sell the items you see in the photos.  I do not sell replacement parts. This is my hobby. I am in no way affiliated with the Gerold Porzellan Company, in fact the company no longer exists.

If you've never heard of Gerold porcelain before, you are not alone.  The Gerold Porzellan Company is one of the lesser known Bavarian producers of fine porcelain, but gaining popularity due in part to this website.  Until 1999, there were no websites on the World Wide Web to provide any information about these collectible porcelain figurines and household items, which the company produced from 1904 to 1997. The Photo Gallery includes 1,193+ photos, just a fraction of what the company produced.  What little I managed to find out about the company can be found on the History page.  Information about the Gerold Porzellan marks can be found on the Marks page.

UPDATE:  I have just received wonderful historical information from the Archives of the City of Tettau.  I am so delighted to be sharing this information with you. 

Submit A Photo

If you have photos that you would like to submit to the gallery please go to the Contact page for more information.  Not all photos are accepted especially if others of an identical item exist.  Be sure to include your full name so I can cite you as the owner of the photo.  Also include any markings, incised models numbers, artist name, etc that are on the item.

 

Note To ebayers !
The content on this website is copyrighted and therefore I request that you ASK MY PERMISSION before quoting any of this information in your item description.  A link to this website is welcomed.

 

Want to know the value of your Gerold Porzellan item?

I have created a Price Guide with all of the current known values and am making it available for a minimal fee of $14.99 to those who are sincerely interested in knowing the value of their Gerold Porzellan.  In fact, this is the 4th year for the price list and I have just updated it with even more photos, listing dozens of missing model numbers, and created a numerical cross-reference for the model numbers.  For more information on how to obtain this list, go to the Price Guide page.  Again, please see my Disclaimer

WANTED!

If you have information or historical knowledge of the Gerold Porzellan Company or its' marks, I want to hear from you!  I would like to learn as much as I can about the company and the products they produced. Please contact me  and I will reply to you as soon as possible.

 

Missing Model Numbers

Another way to help grow this resource is to provide missing model numbers.

Throughout the site you will notice many figurines missing their model numbers mainly because they were either too difficult to read or, rarely, they simply did not have one inscribed on the base of the item.  If you have a Gerold Porzellan item with a legible model number and I don't have it listed, please contact me.

Some model numbers are very difficult to see, but with a flashlight, or by looking at it in bright sunlight helps to see it a bit clearer.  Also, during that time period in Germany their 1's and 7's looked very similar except the numeral 7 had a cross-hatch through it.

I'm also interested in getting the dimensions of items that have none listed.
