These rarities, even those made in the late 19th century can cost more than $6,000 in a shop. Among them the figure of a nodding oriental figure and a com plete Meissen monkey band. Johann Joachim Kandler, probably the best known Meissen porcelain modeler, created the first European animal and people figurines in the mid-18th century. Experts believe Kandler made more than a thousand different figures and figural groups. Needless to say they have been copied and faked ever since. Aside from the familar crinoline figures (ladies and nobles) are whimsical animal sculptures, and deformed figures made after the engravings by the French artist Jacques Callot. The most famous animal group is the “Affenka pelle” or “monkey band.” It consists of a complete orchestra of 21 monkey musician figures, com plete with a conductor. It was originally designed around 1750 with both humorous male and female monkeys. CLUES: During the 18th century monkeys dressed as humans were popular motifs. They have never lost their appeal. And, they were repro duced and copied at such factories as Vienna, Chelsea, and Derby. Kandler’s originals are more detailed, as he studied the animals in Augustus Rex’s royal zoo. The Meissen figures were press-molded with hollow interiors. Close examination of this under side will show an unevenness and rough patches, even fingerprints of the craftsmen. Frankenthal, another German porcelain manu facture (1755-1800) made more than 800 different figures that are popular with today’s collectors. They are best known for elaborate musical party and court scenes as well as the proverbial ballet dancer. When the factory closed, the figures were reproduced at the Nyphenburg factory. The porcelain made at Capodimonte between 1743 and 1759 is eagerly sought by collectors who can afford it. Unfortunately most of the figures that come to market were made in the late 19th (Turn to Page 824) Si □
