This rare teapot with a matching lid from the S.M.Y. Hohenzollern, dated 1912, comes from the exclusive onboard service of Kaiser Wilhelm II. and is an outstanding collector's item for lovers of KPM porcelain, imperial table culture, and objects of German naval history. Made from white glazed porcelain, the teapot features the large coat of arms of Kaiser Wilhelm II., surrounded by the Chain of the Order of the Black Eagle – one of the highest Prussian orders.
Opposite is the imperial presence standard above the banderole with the inscription "S.M.Y. Hohenzollern", the state yacht of the German Emperor, which served as a representative ship of the Imperial Navy from 1893 to 1918. The porcelain service was only used during the Kaiser's personal presence on board and is now only preserved in a few museum or private collections.
The underside bears the typical underglaze blue scepter mark of the Königliche Porzellan-Manufaktur Berlin (KPM) as well as the red orb mark, both with dating. The teapot has a height of 12.5 cm and is in good condition with clear painting and fine execution. Subtle abrasion on the gold rim of the lid and in the blue of the two medallions.
This object combines royal provenance, high-quality porcelain manufacturing, and historical significance – a true highlight for collectors of Imperial Era porcelain, KPM Berlin, and maritime representative objects of the German Imperial Era.
