Unveiling the Treasure Map
Numeric Listing of Gerold Porzellan Numbers with Links to Pictures
Here, we embrace the thrill of discovery and the joy of unveiling the secrets of Gerold Porzellan one model number at a time.
In the world of Gerold Porzellan, where each piece is a unique treasure waiting to be discovered, a numeric map beckons collectors on a quest of exploration. This chapter unfolds the parchment, revealing a listing of known model numbers—a compendium of porcelain gems.
While I strive for accuracy, it’s essential to understand that the numeric listing, like a mosaic, may bear imperfections. The challenge lies in deciphering the enigmatic 1s and 7s, a quirk of German numerals where the 1 of yesteryear resembles today’s 7. Yet, a German 7 boasts a distinctive crosshatch through its stem, a defining characteristic. A picture is shown on the right.
The journey through Gerold Porzellan’s model numbers reveals a tapestry of four-digit codes, or mold numbers, occasionally accompanied by a forward slash (/) followed by another number or letter, typically an A or B. These numeric compositions, a cipher of sorts, open the doors to a world of porcelain wonders.
Yet, the treasure map is not without its missing pieces. Some porcelain items remain unmarked, their secrets locked away, while others bear illegible inscriptions. The compendium is a work in progress, a canvas awaiting the strokes of discovery.
Should you, dear collector, hold in your possession a model number that remains uncharted, I extend an open invitation to share your findings. Together, we illuminate the map, covering the hidden treasures that make Gerold Porzellan a journey of endless wonder.
