"Wedding Procession" by Adolph Amberg of KPM Berlin with bronze mounting. 6-branch; white porcelain with gold decoration. Above on a curved pedestal with sculpted shells, a conically expanding, ribbed palm shaft with lance-shaped relief, ending in C-shaped folded leaves alternating with stylized fruit stands. Removable crown in flower calyx form with fully sculpted seated boy. Six curved candle arms with vase-shaped tulips over a round drip tray. Fine gold painting with vermicelli pattern. Either Adolph Amberg, 1904/1908-1910. Mounting renewed in the base. Scepter and painter's mark. H. 59.5 cm. In addition to a pair of candlesticks, a jardiniere and two footed bowls are listed in the KPM model book from October 1908 under model no. 9027. These belong to a multi-part, multi-figure conceived centerpiece that Adolph Amberg (1874-1913) had already modeled for the wedding of the Prussian Crown Prince in 1904. Since this caused a stir at court, it was not executed in porcelain until 1908-1910 by KPM under the direction of Theodor Schmuz-Baudiss in porcelain. The corresponding pendant to this model is crowned with a girl figure. In addition to his designs for porcelain execution, the sculptor is particularly known for his silver work. Cf. Cat.
