It is noted in Kändler's taxonomy of July 1733: "Specification Was in dem Monath July 1733 an Neuen Modellen Inventiret und gefertiget worden...Einen Vogel von Mittel Mässiger Größe Eine Bier Eule genannt auf einem Postament sitzend, Kandler, Modellmeister". The following year in March 1734: "„Im Monath Martio 1734 sind auf hiesiger Königl. Pohl. und Churfürstl. Sächs. Porcellain Fabrique an neuen Modellen gefertiget worden...Einen Vogel Von Mittelmässiger Grösse gefertiget welcher Eine Bier Eule gennant wird, Johann Joachim Kändler."
The first Kändler models, initially intended exclusively for the Royal Porcelain Collections in the Japanese Palace in Dresden, were reworked several times by Ehder and Reinicke after 1740. Finally, in January 1747, Reinicke created another, new model with a shortened base. At this time, the models were already intended for sale in the Manufactory (Wittwer 2004, p. 336).
