Maria gets a new look. For the first time in its more than 100-year history, Rosenthal's successful collection is now available in a contemporary version called "Maria en Vogue" with coloured glazes. The delicate pastel colours "Pale Mint" and "Pale Orchid" emphasise the romantic vintage touch of the shape and can be perfectly combined with Maria White. The following articles are now available in the new "Pale Mint" and "Pale Orchid" variations: breakfast plate, coffee cup, dinner plate, soup plate, egg cup, mug and cereal bowl. The triumph of the "Maria" shape began in 1916. The service was named after the wife of the company founder Philipp Rosenthal, who married 35-year-younger Maria in 1916. "Maria" stands for porcelain history and table culture. Presumably created as a replica of a silver tea service, this polygonal dinnerware shape with the characteristic edge relief in the form of a fruit garland became the most extensive Rosenthal service. In 1939, there were already more than 170 different items, from bone dishes to knife banks and decorative corks. Even today, more than 70 different individual pieces are available.
