Quite a rare find in excellent condition. This treasure is 4 inches tall and 2 inches at the base. Good condition. THESE WORKS RETAILS IN THE $ 2,000.00 TO $3,000.00 RETAIL RANGE The Nymphenburg Porcelain Manufactory (in German: Porzellanmanufaktur Nymphenburg), manufacturer of Nymphenburg porcelain, is situated in the Nymphenburg Palace in Munich, capital of Bavaria, and since the mid-eighteenth century has been manufacturing porcelain of high artistic value. After his accession in 1745 Maximilian III Joseph, Prince-Elector of Bavaria, commanded the establishment of manufacturing companies in order to bail out the state finances. From 1747 attempts were made to manufacture porcelain and at the end of that year the former Neudeck Castle in the area now the Munich suburb of Au-Haidhausen was made available for that purpose. Up to 1754 the experiments were a miserable failure and lost considerable amounts of money, but in that year the efforts to manufacture porcelain finally began to succeed. In 1755 the factory received its first commission from the Bavarian court and in 1756 came the first success in painting the porcelain in color. The management of the jurist and entrepreneur Count Sigmund von Haimhausen from 1758 ensured that the factory was placed on a sound commercial footing. By 1761 it had moved to the Nymphenburg Palace, where it still is today. Among the great artists who followed Bustelli were Dominikus Auliczek the elder (1734—1804) and Johann Peter Melchior. A great promoter of the works was Ludwig I who gave them many commissions. Particular favorites were dinner services with copies of famous paintings or with Bavarian landscapes in an antique style. In 1822 Friedrich von Garner, the fashionable architect, was appointed artistic director of the factory. In the middle of the 19th century its financial position deteriorated to the extent that in 1856 all artistic production was halted and it was decide to privatize the factory. It was leased out for the first time in 1862 and its focus shifted to the production of technical, medical and sanitary porcelain goods. In 1887 Albert Bäuml (1855—1929) took a lease of the factory. His aim was to regain the previous high artistic level of the factory’s products: it was Bäuml, for example, who “rediscovered” Bustelli. This aim was realized at around the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries and besides historical copies, elegant Jugendstil ceramics were developed.   « Less

Nymphenburg Porcelain Soup Tureen in the Rococo Style in Cumberland Pattern Here we have an outstanding, Nymphenburg porcelain soup tureen in the Rococo Style in the  More »

Nymphenburg Porcelain Soup Tureen in the Rococo Style in Cumberland Pattern Here we have an outstanding, Nymphenburg porcelain soup tureen in the Rococo Style in the Cumberland shape. This is first designed circa 1750 by Franz Anton Bustelli and Joseph Zachenberger. The Rococo form features the asymmetrical shape and curves typical of the period. Decorated with elaborate naturalistic designs, the Rococo service exemplifies the great elegance and style of 18th Century Europe. As the first “Electoral Court Service,” the floral decoration used in the dinnerware was a suitable replacement for fresh flowers, which had a tendency to wilt, and were frowned upon at court. Replaced by the end of the 18th Century with another service, the Cumberland dinnerware experienced a revival in 1913 when used at the wedding for the son of the Duke of Cumberland. The work was first commissioned for the great Grand father, who was Prince William (William Augustus) (26 April 1721 — 31 October 1765), was a younger son of George II of Great Britain and Caroline of Ansbach, and Duke of Cumberland from 1726. He is generally best remembered for his role in putting down the Jacobite Rising at the Battle of Culloden in 1746, and as such is also known as "Butcher" Cumberland. After Culloden, he went on to enjoy a successful military career, but following the Convention of Klosterzeven in 1757, he never held active military command, and switched his attentions to politics and horse-racing. A new one of this (still in production) retails for approximately $42,000.00 and is in perfect condition. The $42,000.00 figure is based upon the same form and size, with only slightly different hand painted decoration, available to view and verify on line at: http://www.trocadero.com/BlutsteinBrondino/items/1060618/item1060618store.html The Tureen measures approximately 9 1/4” height, 9 3/4” width and 14 1/2” length. A small chip in the lid was restored professionally. See photos before (photo 7 & 8)and after(photo 9 & 10). A professional restoration was completed by a SE Florida Professional restorer known for restorations at the Viscaya Museum and Gardens in Miami, and other historical sites. This is offered “as is” and with no return. Please ask all questions before buying. This rococo service from the period of Franz Anton Bustelli was the first "Electoral Court Service" by Porzellan Manufaktur Nymphenburg. Because fresh flowers were frowned upon as table decoration – they could wilt during the meal – Joseph Zächenberger created a colourful and festive design with flower bouquets, single flowers, butterflies and insects framed by fine golden edging in 1765. At the end of the 18th century, it was replaced as the court service with the Bavarian Court Service by Dominikus Auliczek. But it experienced a renaissance in 1913 when the service was reproduced as an extensive table service at the wedding of Ernst August, Duke of Brunswick and Lüneburg, the son the last Duke of Cumberland, with Viktoria Luise, the daughter of the last German Kaiser, Wilhelm II. Cumberland bears the world's most complex flower design that is today still realized on porcelain: painters require up to three weeks to complete a single plate.
