The company was founded in 1879 by Philipp Rosenthal and has a long history of producing high-quality porcelain items. 2. **Selb Bavaria**: This indicates that the piece was made in Selb, a town in Bavaria, Germany. Bavaria is a region known for its porcelain and ceramics industry, and Selb is particularly famous for its production of fine porcelain. 3. **Donatello**: This likely refers to the specific pattern or design name of the piece.
