Information

About us

silla was born out of a passion for beautiful objects: special pieces with aesthetic and historical significance. In 2009, after years of collecting, Andrew Silla and his wife Grace began to work privately with clients from their residence in Southern Maryland. Quickly outgrowing the space, the business was moved from Maryland to Pennsylvania in 2012 and after several warehouse location changes it was firmly settled in the present brick-and-mortar location in downtown Shippensburg.

The 9000 square foot brick-and-mortar gallery is home to a large collection of works of art and estate jewelry. We specialize in sculpture circa 1860 through 1930 with a particular emphasis on the Animaliers and as such the gallery always has a very large collection of exceptional European and American sculpture available on display.

A GERMAN KPM PORCELAIN PLAQUE OF "EIN GRUSS AUS DER WELT" AFTER GUSTAV ADOLF KUNTZ
Apparently signed "JHuynen" lower left; stamped verso "407 263 K.P.M." under scepter
Titled verso and inscribed "Kuntze (Gallery Dresden)" / "painted by: Jul Greiner Sohn - Dresden"
Item # 106DPP17L 

An incredibly fine K.P.M. porcelain plaque executed by Julius Greiner & Sohn (German, active from 1871) after the original painting of Ein Gruss aus der Welt by Gustav Adolf Kuntz, the plaque is signed by the factory copyist in the lower left corner. The markings verso include the impressed scepter over the K.P.M. mark with the dimensions in millimeters. An infrequent find on the open market housed in a contemporary frame.


Measurements: 16 3/16" H x 10 7/16" W [porcelain]; 21 7/8" H x 16 1/4" W [frame]

Condition Report:
Very fine original condition with no notable flaws. The porcelain has a slight curve to the surface resulting in a bit of gapping at the top of the frame. Contemporary frame.
