I am pleased to present an exquisite and extensive dinner and tea service from the prestigious brand Bricard Porcelain. This set is crafted from high-quality fine porcelain, featuring a classic scalloped edge ("festoon" shape) and a delicate pastel floral pattern accented with elegant gold gilding. It is associated with Paul Bricard and the company Atelier Bricard, which was founded in Paris in the 19th century. Bricard did not manufacture porcelain itself but specialized in the artistic painting and decoration of high-quality French porcelain, often pieces from the Limoges porcelain manufactory.The set shows minor signs of use. This service is remarkably sophisticated and would make a stunning centerpiece for any formal dining table.
