An original German porcelain figurine depicting a wire-haired Fox Terrier in a dynamic, standing pose.
Produced by the exclusive Allach manufactory under the direct supervision of the SS, giving it high historical significance and collectibility.
Model number 19 (Foxl, stehend) designed by Prof. Theodor Kärner, the preeminent animal sculptor associated with the Allach works.
This is a rare colored version—the porcelain is hand-painted underglaze with brown, black, and beige tones, accurately representing the breed's natural coat.
The figurine is characterized by its high-gloss glaze and impeccable anatomical detail, from the wire-hair texture to the expressive face and open mouth.
Preserved in pristine collector's condition, with vibrant colors and an intact porcelain structure, showing no signs of professional repair.
Historical Context
The Allach Porcelain Manufactory was an artistic and ideological venture of the SS, aimed at producing the "finest German porcelain" as a new aesthetic standard. Kärner’s animal figurines were the firm's flagship products, celebrated for their masterful blend of natural observation and artistic skill. Painted underglaze versions were produced in much smaller quantities than plain white ones, making them a rare find today. Allach porcelain was primarily distributed as prestigious gifts for state and military officials rather than through general retail, ensuring its high status among elite collectors.
