Description

The presented figurine is an original porcelain fox with a mouse (German: Fuchs mit Maus), produced by the renowned SS Allach factory. This model, marked with the number 78, was designed by the famous artist Prof. Theodor Kärner. The item is preserved in perfect condition, without visible damage (ang. mint condition), which is extremely rare for such delicate, antique porcelain items. 

Physical features and condition:

Material: highest quality white, glazed porcelain.
Colors: the figurine is entirely white, covered with a glossy glaze that highlights the sculpture and anatomical details.
Dimensions: the height of the figurine is approximately 9 cm, and the width (length) approximately 10 cm.
Markings: The bottom of the figurine features characteristic signatures: the image of intertwined SS runes in an octagon (in green underglaze), the embossed artist's signature "PROF. TH. KÄRNER", and the model number "78".
Condition: perfect condition, without cracks, chips, or visible repairs, which confirms its very high collector's value.
 

Historical context:
The Allach Porcelain Manufactory (Porzellan Manufaktur Allach, PMA) operated in Germany between 1936 and 1945 and was directly controlled by the SS under Heinrich Himmler. Himmler saw porcelain production as part of building a new, Aryan culture and often gave Allach products to high-ranking SS officers and friends of the regime as prestigious gifts. Animal figures, such as this fox with a mouse, reflected the contemporary fondness for naturalism and were intended to promote calm, rural motifs. Unfortunately, after 1940, production largely took place in the Dachau concentration camp subcamp, where prisoners were forced to work. These items, while valued for their mastery of execution and rarity, are a dark relic of history, connecting art with Nazi ideology and war crimes.
