The Handmalerei signature was used on hand-decorated products, primarily in the 20th century.
The signature itself does not allow for determining the exact year of production, but it is most commonly found on products from the period around 1930–1950: "original pair (pendant pair)",
"mirror-image candelabra",
"matched pair of Von Schierholz hand-painted porcelain candelabra". Mirrored arrangement of flowers. This is a detail that reproductions and randomly placed pieces lack.
