The workshop decorated often blank Meissen porcelain but also used other blanks. Richard Klemm painted these items in the style of Meissen, Dresden and Vienna.
The mark of original producer of porcelain is often covered by a golden leaf. Richard Klemm registered his mark in 1880 with the Reichswarenzeuchenregister as design number 24.
