NEW What is a Schleiger Number? This is the identification system used by Haviland Dealers due to the large number of patterns of Haviland. Follow the link for a better explanation.
The books by the Schleiger family are the identifying sourcebook for patterns (black and white drawings). These are where all the "Schleiger" identification system of the 60,000 Haviland patterns came from. The later the book edition, the more current the identification.
Hints: To match the Schleiger book picture, pick a Cup Saucer and match that. Also there may be 6-12 variations of your pattern, so look at more than one saucer to match the pattern.
-
What is a blank?- The plain whiteware comes in several dozen different shapes. To help with identification, blanks have been numbered in the Schleiger system. Plain blanks were also sold for people to paint their own china at home.
