Up for bidding is this charming G. S. Zell Baden Plate.  This German-Dutch type tin-glazed earthenware has typical scenes set against a lush green background with windmills on the distant horizon on either a cream or ivory colored body.  There is usually a garbed girl (long dresses with long white aprons and low-land bonnet head-wear), she is usually teased or admired/flirted with by a little boy attired in pantaloon type trousers and short rust-colored jackets, all are wearing the traditional wooden clogs.  This beautiful piece depicts a father smoking while talking to a young boy.  This plate does have a small chip on the rim but would make a wonderful addition to any collection. 

This plate measures 6 5/8 inches in diameter.

Should you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.
