One last potter advertising his trade.
Wilhelm Balman from Kervenheim made this dish in 1770. The symbol in the top-centre of this dish stands for the traditional blockwheel used in that
period as well as it stands for a throwing rib.
Above that it is also seen as a guild symbol for potters.

Another charger with a potters selfportrait. This one made in 1716 by Albert Murs from Rayen, NRW, Germany.

Again a potters selfportrait. Gerrit Evers of Schaephuijsen made this charger for a wedding in 1770. Bride and groom on the rim and their wedding coach in the centre. At the top, on and over the rim, the maker of this stunning piece.
