Description
Nymphenburg Porcelain Soup Dish/Bowl from Hermann Göring’s Family Wagon 10 ‘205’
A quite superb porcelain Soup dish/bowl, specially produced by the Nymphenburg factory in Munich for the Deutsche Reichsbahn Sonderzugs.
This one carries designation marks for Hermann Göring’s Sonderzug ‘Asien’, and in particular carriage number ‘205’, Hermann Göring’s family car, which was for use by his wife Emmy, and daughter Edda when they joined him for a trip.
The highly glazed porcelain is accentuated with a single gold line trim to the outer rim. Centered to the top rim of the plate is the Deutsche Reichsbahn insignia, a gold eagle with wreathed swastika straddled by the letters D and R. To the underside is found the green Nymphenburg crest, a very lightly impressed Nymphenburg shield, and a hand-painted number ‘205’ in black indicating the wagon number.
