The lamp is not tested and needs to have a longer cable and plug to make it fully functional. While it is an antique and shows signs of age, there is no structural damage but there are some significant chips and slightly damages on the flowers, as shown in the pictures. Also, the top of the shade needs to be glued to make it fixed. But it is not damaged.
Description: Condition is used. This lamp is in good antique condition. It has been rewired at some point for safety and is in working order. The handpainted decoration is vibrant and wellpreserved with no significant fading. The brass hardware shows a lovely ageappropriate patina. The bottom is stamped with the "Royal KPM Bavaria" mark, as shown in the photos, which is a common mark for pieces produced by factories in Bavaria.
Historical Background:The mark "Royal KPM Bavaria" is associated with a number of porcelain manufacturers in the Bavarian region of Germany, particularly in the mid20th century. The original Königliche PorzellanManufaktur (KPM) in Berlin, founded in 1763, is a separate and older entity, but the use of the "KPM" and "Royal" names was a common practice among Bavarian factories to evoke a sense of heritage and high quality. The "Handarbeit" mark often found on these pieces confirms that they were indeed handmade and handpainted, reflecting a continued commitment to craftsmanship in the postWWII era. This lamp represents a period when decorative porcelain from Germany was highly sought after, and its floral motif is a timeless and classic design.Measurements:Overall Height (to socket): 15 inches

During the late 19th and early 20th centuries, a period of significant production and artistic flourishing, Sitzendorf pieces were highly sought after for their intricate handpainting, elaborate designs, and the frequent use of applied floral elements and rich gold gilding. The factory, under various ownerships (including the Voigt brothers from 1884), often drew inspiration from the earlier Rococo styles of Meissen and Dresden, producing elegant figurines and candelabras that depicted classical figures, allegories, and pastoral scenes. The distinctive blue underglaze mark, often incorporating a crown and "S", is a recognized sign of authentic Sitzendorf porcelain, cementing its enduring legacy in German porcelain manufacturing.

The owl's characteristic heartshaped face and distinctive cream/white coloration are meticulously rendered, while the small brown mouse adds a natural storytelling element to the scene. The figurine perfectly captures the essence of these nocturnal hunters and their prey in a moment of quiet observation.
Border Fine Arts was established in Scotland in 1974 and became renowned for their highly detailed sculptures of wildlife and rural scenes.

The modest size of this figurine (approximately 4 inches tall) makes it perfect for display in a curio cabinet or on a bookshelf, where the delicate details can be appreciated up close.

️ About This Piece:
This charming Border Fine Arts figurine titled "Helping Out" (item number B0202) was sculpted by artist Anne Wall in 1997 and depicts a humorous country scene of two mischievous Border Collie dogs in a vegetable garden. One dog is carrying a cabbage leaf while the other has a carrot, surrounded by cabbages and carrots they've clearly been "helping" themselves to from the garden. A scarecrow's coat hangs in the background, ineffective against these fourlegged vegetable thieves.
The piece captures the playful nature of Border Collies and showcases the exceptional attention to detail that Border Fine Arts pieces are known for from the realistic textures of the dog fur to the veining in the cabbage leaves and the textured carrot tops. The natural scene is mounted on a polished wooden base, and the underside features the green felt covering with the piece's title "Helping Out" and production information.
This whimsical figurine would appeal to dog lovers, Border Collie enthusiasts, and collectors of rural life sculptures. It's a charming representation of country life and the sometimes troublesome but endearing behavior of our canine companions.

History of Dresden Style Porcelain:
The term "Dresden porcelain" often refers to a particular style of fine porcelain artistry that originated in the city of Dresden, Germany, in the 18th century. While Meissen was the first to produce hardpaste porcelain in Europe, numerous other studios and decorators in and around Dresden began producing their own wares, particularly during the Rococo Revival of the 19th century. These works are celebrated for their elaborate and romantic designs, often featuring detailed figural scenes, intricate floral patterns ("Dresden flowers"), and lavish gold gilding. Figural groups depicting pastoral, courtly, or mythological life were immensely popular, serving as showpieces in affluent homes. This piece, with its dual function as a vase, is a wonderful example of the blend of artistry and utility that characterized the era.
