Meissen Factory Marks
Meissen used a variety of factory and maker’s marks from its
inception, but the famous crossed-swords didn’t become the
official Meissen mark until 1722-23.
Since 1722-23, to this day, the crossed-swords Meissen mark
has always been a hand-painted blue under-glaze mark.
And they have officially undergone several variations.
As shown below;

Note: The Meissen crossed-swords marks are some of the
most imitated and faked marks used. So while they can be
used as indicators in the authentication process
– they are not guarantees of authenticity.

These neat and concise illustrations, (above), were created
for publication. The actual hand-painted Meissen marks found
on their porcelain pieces would look more like the images below.

Cautionary Note: Meissen used a system of marking pieces
that were either sold undecorated, or deemed inferior by
making “slashes” through or besides the crossed-
swords – as shown below.
one slash – sold undecorated from 1740 trough 1938
two slashes – tableware deemed of unsuitable quality
from 1852 through 1870
three slashes – items of brack quality, (contained firing faults), from 1852 through 1870
four slashes – considered lowest quality, from 1852 through 1870
This is an actual Meissen quality mark found on a tea service
that was listed for $4995.00!
Seller described set as exquisite Meissen quality – and the
photos did show that the set was gorgeous; to an untrained
eye, but even so, it was not up to Meissen’s standards,
and there was no mention that the factory mark showed
that Meissen deemed the set to be unsuitable for tableware.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
There were at least two other “official” Meissen marks
used between 1720 and 1730.
The AR monogram was a special mark reserved for objects
used by the court of Elector August the Strong, founder of
the Meissen factory.
Although most documentation dates the AR use only up to
1730, it was also added to pieces produced for the court of
his son, August III, who succeeded him in 1733. Occasionally
the mark was added to gifts produced for royal visitors.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The AF monogram was used exclusively for porcelains
designed for Prince Elector Frederick Augustas III
This monogram mark is a reliable date stamp for Meissen
pieces because it was only used in 1733-1734.
*Although shown here in black, this marking was also a
cobalt blue under-glaze mark.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Prior to 1720 there were many other artists, throwers,
formers, and maker’s marks used on Meissen porcelains,
(and also on Bottgers Stoneware), and many pieces
carried multiple marks, in conjunction with the official
blue under-glazed swords.
