WWII Deutsche Arbeitsfront (DAF) Porcelain Plate – KPM

Description This is an authentic WWII-era porcelain plate issued by the Deutsche Arbeitsfront (DAF – German Labour Front), the state labor organization of Nazi Germany. Plates like this were standard issue in mess halls and canteens, used by workers and staff during the period. The plate is of standard size and made of high-quality porcelain. This example remains complete and in good condition with only minor age-related wear, consistent with a piece that is more than 80 years old. The underside bears the clear factory stamp of KPM (Königliche Porzellan-Manufaktur Berlin), one of Germany’s most famous and prestigious porcelain manufacturers with a history dating back to the 18th century. KPM produced high-quality porcelain for governmental organizations and institutions, making this plate a beautiful example of German craftsmanship from the period. The stamp also contains the inscription “Modell des Amtes Schönheit der Arbeit” (“Model of the Office Beauty of Labour”). This refers to the DAF’s Schönheit der Arbeit (“Beauty of Labour”) program, which aimed to improve and standardize workplaces and everyday objects under the ideology of the Third Reich. Items like this offer a fascinating glimpse into the everyday life of the period, showing how even ordinary objects were marked with organizational ownership and political symbolism. It is a genuine relic of WWII social history and a strong addition to any collection of German militaria, historical porcelain, or DAF artifacts.
