Featuring Two Females In Period Dress From our Ceramics collection, we are delighted to offer two KPM Porcelain Plaques by Franz Wagner sold as a pair. The KPM Porcelain Plaques fitted within their original gilt wood frames with scrolling borders both signed to the base of the frame F. Wagner each featuring a portrait of a female, the first plaque is a portrait of Charlotte, Lady Milnes after the British 18th century painter George Romney currently held in the Frick Collection, Manhattan, New York. The second plaque features the lute player after German 19th century historical portrait painter Friedrich August von Kaulbach. The Lady Milnes plaque is visibly signed to the lower right corner “Wagner” which is partially hidden by the frame, the second frame does not have a visible signature and is possibly hidden within the frame or very faint. Each of the plaques bear original provenance to the rear and are held within their original frames stating they were purchased in 1959 at £75 for the pair and were owned in a collection in Jersey along with collection numbers. Both plaques are firmly attributed to KPM and are well known plaques by the company under Wagners hand, we have not removed the original framing to confirm the mark and therefore are attributing them only. The KPM Porcelain Plaques date to the second half of the 19th century Circa 1890. KPM (Königliche Porzellan-Manufaktur – The Royal Porcelain Factory) in Berlin was founded in 1763 Frederick the Great (King Frederick II). Its actual origins, however, lie in three private enterprises which, under crown patronage, were trying to establish the production of “white gold” (porcelain) in Berlin from the mid-18th century onwards.The company logo is a sceptre, which is stamped (painted prior to 1837) or incised on every piece. All painted pieces produced by KPM are also signed by the painter. KPM is still producing porcelain today. Franz Wagner was from a famous family of painters working from Starhemberggasse in Vienna, Austria in the late nineteenth century. F. Wagner became known for his exceptional quality reproductions of historic old masters on porcelain for Vienna and KPM (Königliche Porzellan-Manufaktur). There is little information regarding his career but he was a known painter for Vienna and KPM active in the late 19th century to the early 20th century. George Romney (1734-1802) was born in Beckside, Dalton-in-Furness, Lancashire (now part of Cumbria), to John Romney a cabinet maker and Anne Simpson. Raised in a cottage named High Cocken in modern-day Barrow-in-Furness, he was sent to school at nearby Dendron until he was withdrawn at the age of 11 to apprentice under his father’s business. He proved to have a natural ability for drawing and making things from wood including violins (which he played throughout his life). From the age of 15 Romney was informally taught art by a local watchmaker called John Williamson. His official studies began in earnest in 1755, when he went to Kendal, at the age of 21, for a 4-year apprenticeship with local artist Christopher Steele, who had himself studied with distinguished French artist Carlo Vanloo. In October 1756, Romney married Mary Abbot...

The Decanter of slim tapered form with bulbous body, splayed circular foot with pinched stem and shaped opening. The Decanter extensively decorated throughout the body with two large fern leaves stemming from a central tied ribbon in the form of a bow. The decanter features a rounded handle fitted to the upper half of the decanter with a hinged shaped lid opening with gravity. To the base of the decanter an engraving reading “Jesse Collings. from I. Chamberlain.” Hallmarked to the neck AM (Alexander Macrae), Lion passant (sterling silver), Leopard Head town mark for London, Date letter R (1872) and the sovereign head duty mark. The Decanter is complete with its original latched fitted box lined in purple velvet with gold stringing to the exterior and the retailers mark to the inside doors “Widdowson & Veale, Goldsmith & Jewellery, to the Court of Spain, 73 Strand London.” Widdowson & Veale George Widdowson (b. 1804 Lincoln – Died 1872 Dulwich Village) was a celebrated silversmith and goldsmith although he took the route of retailer rather than a craftsman and by the age of 28 he had taken over his uncle’s London shop on the Strand, London. His uncle John Salter had been a close friend of Lord Nelson’s daughter, Horatia, and was godfather to one of her children. The shop was very successful and John Salter had supplied Nelson with many pieces of jewellery, including mourning rings. Widdowson developed the shop into Widdowson & Veale located at No. 73 Strand on the corner of Adam Street and opposite the Adelphi. Widdowson had a real eye for marketing. He once had a detailed newspaper article dedicated to his proposal to make a copy of Aeneas’ shield, as described in Virgil’s Aeneid. There is no evidence the shield was ever made though it did get good publicity. The company made swords and other weapons for the British army and navy, orders and decorations for the British court and were goldsmiths and jewellers to the court of Spain. In 1842 on the christening of Queen Victoria’s eldest son (later King Edward VII), Widdowson’s eye for publicity meant that the firm gave a christening gift of ‘an immense silver coronet supporting the Prince of Wales feathers.’ Widdowson & Veale were also makers to HRH the Duke of Sussex and the Court of Spain. In 1844, George was 40 and his business was doing well, as was the economy as a whole. The firm were able to advertise for apprentices, asking for a premium of £100. On 11 February 1847 George married Eliza Duffield (nee Boville), the daughter of a Putney wine merchant who had been living in Gibraltar but returned when her first husband, John Duffield, died. George and Eliza were middle-aged when they married and did not have children. Alexander Macrae founder of the firm that went on to be C J Vander Ltd. Macrae was recorded at 32 Bow Street, Covent Garden, London September 1856. He was joined in partnership by Martin Goldstein c. 1870, whereupon the style of the firm was changed to Macrae & Goldstein – first listed in 1871 as a silversmith. Alexander Macrae supplied many of the great firms at that time such as Elkington, Harry Emanuel...
