Pricing this china, as with all china, depends completely upon the age, quality and pattern that you are asking about. For example, if you are seeking to price an older set of china by Eschenbach that was made for a relatively short period of time (production period, that is), then it will be rare on the market; depending on the condition and size of the set, you could ask a good deal of money for it. However, if you have a set of china made by Eschenbach that was fairly common, made for a long period of time and enjoyed a popular sales period, then the set would be of a lesser value (again, depending on condition). I recently compared this in two Royal Doulton series -- their overly-produced and sold Country Roses pattern and their very short production and beautiful Diana pattern of the Romance series. Country Roses, even in good condition, is relatively worthless on the market compared to what one spent to buy it new, however the Diana pattern costs a fortune should one need to replace a piece if that is their china pattern. So I would suggest that you look at other sets of china similar to yours when you go to price your service. I hope this helps as you look to price your service My mother-in-law has a beautiful pattern of Eshcenbach china, service for eight, for which we have tried for years to find the pattern name. It is now about 75 to 80 years old - a lovely cream color, graduating from the center to a light yellow then trimmed with a grey scroll that is accented with very light, pale almost orange flowers and green leaves. There are gold and black accents along the plates and serving pieces. We, too, would appreciate any help in identifying this pattern should anyone out there know the name as we look to pass this set on to a grand or great-grand daughter. Thank you!

Eschenbach China, known for its fine porcelain, has shifted much of its production to countries outside Germany. While the brand still maintains a presence in the market, its manufacturing operations have significantly decreased in Germany. It's advisable to check their official website or recent news for the most current information regarding their production status.
