About me
Table decoration, essay
The allegorical theme of friendship is wonderfully implemented in this neoclassical essay for a banquet table or a chest of drawers. Two young women stand in the center and look closely at a flower; In the background, unnoticed by the friends, a small putto vies ca. attention. The “Amicita”, the deep friendship that is traditionally usually represented by two women, is also reflected in the front and back relief: a playful scene is shown that shows Poseidon with sea nymphs, tritons, dolphins and other creatures in the sea. Symbolically, the Nereids also stand for helpful and friendly connections.
The bowl, which was mostly decorated with flowers, magically combines function and decor.
Bisque, second half 19th century Century. With a blue French porcelain mark and model number 7260/9 on the underside. Unfortunately, the right woman is missing her little finger, on the reverse side there are several very small holes from the fire in the porcelain (air pockets). Apart from that, very nice, fine design and elaboration of all details. Original condition.
Size: 35.5 x 32 x 17.5 cm Weight: 3.5 kg

I enjoy beautiful things and it is my greatest pleasure to find them, to lure them into their stories, to spend time with them and then set them free again. Add to that a passionate interest in exceptional and high crafted objects. You surely know the exciting feeling when you see or experience something special, when the heart bounces in excitement and the joy inside it spreads. That's what I wanted more in my life and that's how this shop came about. The foundation stone was a study of literature and art history as well as cultural communication. Curiosity, thirst for knowledge and a lot of collaboration with amazing personalities in the art and design world are how I got myself to where I am today. Through antiquities, history becomes tangible in the literal sense, one can perceive it sensually. They calmly defy the constant change of fashions and the taste of the times. They are like a bridge between past and present. For me personally they are an inexhaustible source of inspiration. Some objects give up puzzles, lock themselves up; others quite frankly reveal their past. They radiate joie de vivre, astonish or enchant us; make a collector's heart beat faster or become good friends and a meaningful place in your lives. They may be bulky or controversial, but they are never boring. I believe the stories, the hands, and the tradition behind the objects are equally as important as their aesthetic qualities. Antique objects can adds so much value to your life, and I personally cannot imagine a home without it. Each piece in my shop has been thoughtfully and personally chosen. What unites them is their craftsmanship, care and attention to detail. Enjoy them.
