Zeh Scherzer Bavaria Set of 2 Chargers Plates 12 Indian Tree w/Gold. Zeh Scherzer Set of 2 Chargers Plates Bavaria 12 Indian Tree w/Gold. A beautiful MATCHING SET of 2 CHARGERS , manufactured in Rehau, Bavaria, GERMANY by Z. Zeh Scherzer & Co. The history of Zeh, Scherzer & Company of Bavaria dates back to 1880 when it was established by 6 citizens of Rehau in northern Bavaria. By 1900, 70% of the production was exported to the USA. By 1992, production had ceased after a successful run of quality porcelain for over 100 years. The dark green mark with Z. Over BAVARIA was used between 1880 and 1882 according to Robert E. Rontgen’s Marks on German, Bohemian and Austrian Porcelain 1710 to the Present (mark #2468). Here is the most unique feature of this pair. These chargers match even though they were manufactured at least 48+ years apart. The colors are vivid and true on both. We can find no chips, scratches, cracks, hairlines, or other repairs. Both have one small black dot of coal ash kiln debris. We see no wear on the paint or gold. See the photos which magnify the pieces. The set displays beautifully and certainly is eye-catching and even functional. The diameter of each charger is 12 1/8. The newer charger is 1 1/8″ in height while the older one is 1/8″ higher at 1 1/4. You do not notice this difference unless the two are touching at the rims. As collectors ourselves, we tend to be very picky and find it necessary to point out anything we see. Upon very close examination of these two Indian Tree designs, we can find two minor differences. The older charger has one extra small pink leaf and the newer one has one stem that is cut slightly shorter. We believe you will be very satisfied with this beautiful pair and we challenge you to find the differences. On the older plate, the dot of coal ash is visible; but on the new one it occurs on the tree and appears to be a knot on the bark.
