Sweet little guys I found yesterday. My mom Loves Cherubs so I purchased this for her. This is a mark I have never seen before. I do think there is a broken bit in the hand of the little guy on the right. This is very nice but one thing I do not understand is the pyramid type deal to the right, just seems out of place to me. If anyone knows the significance of the pyramid please give me some insight.
Just found that it is KPM, now to date it :)
Thanks for the love aghcollect <3

Thank you for the link Sean68.
Very curious, I agree. What is the KPM stand for? I couldn't see the link Sean added. They are so pretty.
Krister Porzellan-Manufaktur. it appears according to the link Sean sent me it is older than I thought.

Thank you for the <3 Vetario50.
Königliche Porzellan-Manufaktur.
As an alternative to 'cherub' search with 'putto' or 'putti' or 'putten' for a different set of results.
Thank you for correcting vetraio50.
It may not be a pyramid as such .... perhaps the corner of a block embedded in the soil? Looks OK to my eye. Very nice piece.
LOL, Thank you vetraio50. Don't get me wrong, I love the piece. I just found it a bit odd is all. I would love to be in the mind of these sculptors sometimes.
I wondered the pyramid thing too... antique road show lol..they always find out why. .
