Beautiful Allach tabletop porcelain single candleholder, 6 x 5.5 in., marked on the bottom with the artist’s name ‘CARL DIEBITSCH’ in very light relief and embossed with the Allach hallmark of stylized SS runes. The four legs, outlined in black, come to an elegant scroll at the bottom. The center band reads: ‘Erganzungsamt der Waffen-SS’ ('Supplementary Office of the Waffen-SS’), with a star motif underneath and three thin lines above, all in black. The Supplementary Office was an expansion of the SS Main Office under the command of Gottlob Berger and was responsible for managing the personnel files of the SS men and non-commissioned officers. Very fine condition, with no chips, scratches, or any other damage. The porcelain factory Porzellan Manufaktur Allach was established as a private concern in 1935. In 1936 the factory was acquired by Heinrich Himmler to produce works of art that would represent, in Himmler's eyes, true Germanic culture. Production was based at Allach, the largest subcamp of Dachau, and it used slave labor in the production of these pieces.
