Beschreibung
Unbekannter Probeteller mit Muschelrelief
Porzellan, polychromer Emaildekor, Vergoldung. Flach, mit konzentrischem geschweiftem Muschelrelief. Im Spiegel drei konzentrisch gelegte naturalistische Fischdarstellungen, dazwischen drei Hummer. In den größeren Segmenten der Fahne alternierend je drei Jakobsmuscheln, sehr fein mit Kupferlüster gemalt, und drei Kaurischnecken. Blaumarke Schwerter, blaues Zeichen im Standring, Dreherzeichen für Johann Daniel Rehschuh. Mehrere kleine restaurierte Randchips. D 24,4 cm.
Meissen, um 1737, das Modell von Johann Joachim Kaendler.
Unter den bisher von Ulrich Pietsch und Melitta Kunze-Köllensperger publizierten Probetellern zum Schwanenservice gibt es zwei Exemplare, die belegen, dass es sich auch bei diesem wappenlosen Teller möglicherweise um ein Stück handelt, das Kaendler seinem Auftraggeber, Heinrich Graf von Brühl, als Dessin vorstellte. Das Relief „... in Gestalt einer Muschel ...“ (Pietsch 2002, S. 39), wie es Kaendler in seinen Arbeitsberichten von April 1736 beschreibt, darf als mögliche Alternative oder Vorstufe zu dem berühmten „Schwanen Dessin“ betrachtet werden. Melitta Kunze-Köllensperger publizierte erstmals einen Probeteller desselben Modells aus dem Fotoarchiv der Porzellansammlung, Dresden, der noch mit dem Brühl'schem Freiherrn-Wappen dekoriert ist: laut Berling wurde dieser Teller 1913 noch in Schloss Pförten aufbewahrt, heute gilt er als verloren. Ulrich Pietsch reproduzierte eine 1913 von Karl Berling veröffentlichte Zeichnung des Tellers, dessen Dekorschema mit einem zentralen großen Wappen auf einer Konsole allerdings noch dem Service für Graf Sulkowski folgt. Der zweite zum Vergleich herangezogene Probeteller befindet sich im Besitz des Kunsthandels Elfriede Langeloh. Basierend auf dem Modell des endgültigen Schwanenreliefs ist er auf der Fahne mit dem seit Mai 1737 gebesserten, reichsgräflich Brühl´schen Wappen sowie einer Jakobs- oder Pilgermuschel bemalt. Das hier vorgestellte Stück ist also in diesem Zusammenhang zu betrachten.

Unknown Meissen porcelain proof plate with shell relief decor
Shallow plate with concentric shellwork relief decor, the well with naturalistically rendered fish and lobsters. The large segments of the border with alternating depictions of scallop shells picked out in fine copper lustre and three cowrie shells. Blue crossed swords mark, blue marks to the basal ring, dreher's mark of Johann Daniel Rehschuh. With several small restored rim chips. D 24.4 cm.
Circa 1737, the model by Johann Joachim Kaendler.
Two examples among the proof plates for the Swan Service published by Ulrich Pietsch and Melitta Kunze-Köllensperger prove that this plate without armorials may have been a piece which Kaendler presented to his patron Count Heinrich von Brühl as a design proof. Ulrich Pietsch reproduced a drawing of a plate from the kitchen of Pförten palace published by Karl Berling in 1913 that used an identical form but was painted with a large coat of arms on a bracket in the centre, similar to that used on the porcelain for Count Sulkowski. The whereabouts of this piece are currently unknown. The form design is listed in Kaendler's workshop records in an entry written during April 1736: “10. Another 4 plates shaped like shells moulded in porcelain mass” (Pietsch 2002, p. 39). Kaendler developed this form, based on the surface structure of a scallop shell, in the course of his work on the Swan Service and it eventually formed the background of the famous swan relief. Thus, the concentric shell pattern décor used in this plate must have been a prototype for the final service design. Another comparable proof plate can be found in the collection of the art dealer Elfriede Langeloh. It uses the same scallop and cowrie shell design for the border and was presumably produced in connection with the present work.

Conditions of Sale
1. The art auction house, Kunsthaus Lempertz KG (henceforth referred to as Lempertz), conducts public auctions in terms of § 383 paragraph 3 sentence 1 of the Civil Code as commissioning agent on behalf of the accounts of submitters, who remain anonymous. With regard to its auctioneering terms and conditions drawn up in other languages, the German version remains the official one.
2. The auctioneer reserves the right to divide or combine any catalogue lots or, if it has special reason to do so, to offer any lot for sale in an order different from that given in the catalogue or to withdraw any lot from the sale.
3. All lots put up for sale may be viewed and inspected prior to the auction. The catalogue specifications and related specifications appearing on the internet, which have both been compiled in good conscience, do not form part of the contractually agreed to conditions. These specifications have been derived from the status of the information available at the time of compiling the catalogue. They do not serve as a guarantee in legal terms and their purpose is purely in the information they provide. The same applies to any reports on an item’s condition or any other information, either in oral or written form. Certificates or certifications from artists, their estates or experts relevant to each case only form a contractual part of the agreement if they are specifically mentioned in the catalogue text. The state of the item is generally not mentioned in the catalogue. Likewise missing specifications do not constitute an agreement on quality. All items are used goods.
4. Warranty claims are excluded. In the event of variances from the catalogue descriptions, which result in negation or substantial diminution of value or suitability, and which are reported with due justification within one year after handover, Lempertz nevertheless undertakes to pursue its rights against the seller through the courts; in the event of a successful claim against the seller, Lempertz will reimburse the buyer only the total purchase price paid. Over and above this, Lempertz undertakes to reimburse its commission within a given period of three years after the date of the sale if the object in question proves not to be authentic.
5. Claims for compensation as the result of a fault or defect in the object auctioned or damage to it or its loss, regardless of the legal grounds, or as the result of variances from the catalogue description or statements made elsewhere are excluded unless Lempertz acted with wilful intent or gross negligence; the liability for bodily injury or damages caused to health or life remains unaffected. In other regards, point 4 applies.
6. Submission of bids. Bids in attendance: The floor bidder receives a bidding number on presentation of a photo ID. Lempertz reserves the right to grant entry to the auction. If the bidder is not known to Lempertz, registration must take place 24 hours before the auction is due to begin in writing on presentation of a current bank reference. Bids in absentia: Bids can also be submitted either in writing, telephonically or via the internet. The placing of bids in absentia must reach Lempertz 24 hours before the auction to ensure the proper processing thereof. The item must be mentioned in the bid placed, together with the lot number and item description. In the event of ambiguities, the listed lot number becomes applicable. The placement of a bid must be signed by the applicant. The regulations regarding revocations and the right to return the goods in the case of long distance agreements (§ 312b-d of the Civil Code) do not apply. Telephone bids: Establishing and maintaining a connection cannot be vouched for. In submitting a bid placement, the bidder declares that he agrees to the recording of the bidding process. Bids via the internet: They will only be accepted by Lempertz if the bidder registered himself on the internet website beforehand. Lempertz will treat such bids in the same way as bids in writing.
7. Carrying out the auction: The hammer will come down when no higher bids are submitted after three calls for a bid. In extenuating circumstances, the auctioneer reserves the right to bring down the hammer or he can refuse to accept a bid. If several individuals make the same bid at the same time, and after the third call, no higher bid ensues, then the ticket becomes the deciding factor. The auctioneer can retract his acceptance of the bid and auction the item once more if a higher bid that was submitted on time, was erroneously overlooked and immediately queried by the bidder, or if any doubts regarding its acceptance arise. Written bids are only played to an absolute maximum by Lempertz if this is deemed necessary to outbid
another bid. The auctioneer can bid on behalf of the submitter up to the agreed limit, without revealing this and irrespective of whether other bids are submitted. Even if bids have been placed and the hammer has not come down, the auctioneer is only liable to the bidder in the event of premeditation or gross negligence.
8. Once a lot has been knocked down, the successful bidder is obliged to buy it. If a bid is accepted conditionally, the bidder is bound by his bid until four weeks after the auction unless he immediately withdraws from the conditionally accepted bid. From the fall of the hammer, possession and risk pass directly to the buyer, while ownership passes to the buyer only after full payment has been received.
9. Up to a hammer price of € 400,000 a premium of 24 % calculated on the hammer price plus 19 % value added tax (VAT) calculated on the premium only is levied. The premium will be reduced to 20 % (plus VAT) on any amount surpassing € 400,000 (margin scheme). On lots which are characterized by N, an additional 7 % for import tax will be charged. On lots which are characterized by an D, 35% is calculated on the hammer price (24% buyer´s premium + 19% VAT on the premium only + import tax). 31% is calculated on the amount surpassing € 400.000. The D objects contain all taxes, and tehy can not be carried away immediately. On lots which are characterized by an R, the buyer shall pay a premium of 24 % on the hammer price up to € 400,000 and 20 % on the surpassing amount; onto this (hammer price and premium) the statutory VAT of 19 % will be added (regular scheme). Exports to third (i.e. non-EU) countries will be exempt from VAT, and so will be exports made by companies from other EU member states if they state their VAT identification number. For original works of art, whose authors are either still alive or died after 31.12.1948, a charge of 1.8 % on the hammer price will be levied for the droit de suite. The maximum charge is € 12,500. If a buyer exports an object to a third country personally, the VAT will be refunded, as soon as Lempertz receives the export and import papers. All invoices issued on the day of auction or soon after remain under provision.
10. Successful bidders attending the auction in person shall forthwith upon the purchase pay to Lempertz the final price (hammer price plus premium and VAT) in Euro. Payments by foreign buyers who have bid in writing or by proxy shall also be due forthwith upon the purchase, but will not be deemed to have been delayed if received within ten days of the invoice date. Bank transfers are to be exclusively in Euros. The request for an alteration of an auction invoice to a person other than the bidder has to be made immediately after the auction. Lempertz however reserves the right to refuse such a request if it is deemed appropriate.
11. In the case of payment default, Lempertz will charge 1% interest on the outstanding amount of the gross price per month.. If the buyer defaults in payment, Lempertz may at its discretion insist on performance of the purchase contract or, after allowing a period of grace, claim damages for non-performance. In the latter case, Lempertz may determine the amount of the damages by putting the lot or lots up for auction again, in which case the defaulting buyer will bear the amount of any reduction in the proceeds compared with the earlier auction, plus the cost of resale, including the premium.
12. Buyers must take charge of their purchases immediately after the auction. Once a lot has been sold, the auctioneer is liable only for wilful intent or gross negligence. Lots will not, however, be surrendered to buyers until full payment has been received. Without exception, shipment will be at the expense and risk of the buyer. Purchases which are not collected within four weeks after the auction may be stored and insured by Lempertz on behalf of the buyer and at its expense in the premises of a freight agent. If Lempertz stores such items itself, it will charge 1 % of the hammer price for insurance and storage costs.
13. As far as this can be agreed, the place of performance and jurisdiction is Cologne. German law applies; the German law for the protection of cultural goods applies; the provisions of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG) are not applicable. Should any provision herein be wholly or partially ineffective, this will not affect the validity of the remaining provisions.
