Here is a spectacular KPM compote with a full figure of Bacchus/cherub for the finial. It is a large and impressive compote measuring 12 1/2" high overall & 10" in diameter. The compote starts out with two scenes on the top one being a group of dignified towns men seated eating dinner with the servants standing at the ready. The next scene is of the men lets say just drinking a lot - they seem to be dreading a situation of the tax collector coming? Then on the base of the bowl in one scene the men seem to be pleading with the tax collectors to no avail! The second scene on the bowl shows a family leaving the home they lost to the tax collectors. As you can see the compote has flowers strewn all about and it is just an overwhelming piece. There is so much to digest when looking at this compote. The condition is perfect in every way except for a spot the size of a dime on the very bottom rim where a slight repair to the porcelain was done and apparently the gilding was left undone but it is minute and it can?t been seen unless you turn the compote upside down. It is marked underneath with a blue scepter.
