Hi,
I have acquired 6 of these berry/fruit bowls.
Can you help authenticate them as well as provide a value?
Thank you,
Adam

Yep-- looks like RS Prussia. The mark is good and the pattern is one that I have seen before. I own a few of this pattern.
Do you have the larger bowl as well? Most of the value is in the large bowl, but the smaller ones are desirable for someone needing to complete or add to a set.

Thank you, Scott.
Yes, I did see that the 10" bowls carry a higher price tag. Unfortunately, we only have the small ones. Do you have an idea of their value individually or as a set? We have 6 so I'm hoping that would complete the set for someone as you mentioned.
Thank you again.

Hi: Scott's comment is right on the mark. Like any collectable, the value is determined by the buyer. High RS Prussia prices over the last decades was set by a VERY small group of wealthy Prussia addicts/collectors to whom price was no barrier, and bragging rights all important. Now, reality has set in, and values have plummeted. See this eBay listing of a set much like yours.

Only the really rare pieces still manage to create a stir.
Thank you for the posts! That is a huge help.
