Good Evening Everyone,

I would like to approach my question in a little different manner. In my collecting of WWII Kriegsmarine Mess Hall porcelain I have come across the following trim colors:

1. Plain White (No Trim Colors)
2. Three Green Stripes (Center Stripe Heavier)
3. Three Red Stripes (Center Stripe Heavier)
4. Black Heavy Center Stripe, Gold Stripe Each Side Of Black)

My question is does anyone know what these color codes could be related to? Could it be rank, ship types, Naval Stations, etc.

The following image should demonstrate the trim colors on the porcelain. I am sure the color codes relate to something but I have not been able to find out. Your help and comments would be appreciated.

I know this subject is not directly related to Lugers and it may need to be moved to the Off Topic Section.

Thanks,
