This is a very rare piece of Allach Porcelain, I have only ever seen one other of these in the last 20 years of collecting and that was the smaller version.
Allach porcelain was manufactured in Germany from 1935 to 1945. Professor Franz Nagy owned the land nearby the small town of Allach that the porcelain factory was built on, himself and his business partner Karl Diebitsch began the very first production of the porcelain.
In 1936 the factory was acquired by Heinrich Himmler and became fully under the control of the SS. Much of the labour and many of the artists to run the factory were supplied by the nearby Dachau Concentration Camp. The stigma attached to this porcelain is fully understandable, but the pure quality of the products produced are simply breathtaking. With only 10 years in manufacture all Allach pieces are considered rare – some more than others.
The white glazed serving tray for meat or game measures 380mm X 250mm. It is completely free of any damage or flaws to the dish glazing – perfect condition. The underside has a raised edge at the outer, then an inner and finally a small rectangular block at the centre. Just above the small block are the intertwined green runes and the name Allach.
This really is a piece of Allach that is incredibly hard to find and came as part of a large set for fine dining.
