Description from the seller

Refined service of Richard Ginori fine porcelain dishes, crafted in the elegant Forma Impero, a model of classical taste introduced and developed by the historic Florentine manufactory in the course of the twentieth century, appreciated for its balanced, sober and harmonious lines, inspired by Neoclassical aesthetics.

The service is enriched by a refined polychrome fish decor, with naturalistic representations of several species of fish, accompanied by delicate plant elements and small aquatic details. Each subject is executed with great painterly finesse and attention to detail, making each plate slightly different and particularly interesting from a collectible standpoint. The soft, well-calibrated tones create an elegant and lively overall impression, capable of enhancing the pristine surface of the porcelain without weighing it down.

Forma Impero, recognizable by its full, slightly stepped profile, frames the decoration with formal rigor and balance, while the cobalt blue border with a fine gilded thread adds depth and prestige to the ensemble, creating a refined contrast with the bright white of the porcelain.

A piece of particular value is the soup tureen with lid, whose slender, conical shape of the covering recalls, in terms of volume and elegance, that of the tajine, reinterpreted here in an educated and neoclassical key. This profile lends the piece a distinctive character and a strong visual presence, while maintaining the sobriety and harmony inherent to Forma Impero. The tureen, perfectly coordinated with the rest of the service in decoration and finishes, completes the set and significantly enhances its overall value, both functional and collecting.

COMPOSITION:

- 12 flat plates 26ø
- 1 tureen 23.5ø
- 1 sauce tureen 23x15
- 1 large fish server 58x 22.5

Brand
On the back there is the original Richard Ginori – Italy mark, which allows a indicative dating to the first half of the twentieth century, a period of particular quality and stylistic maturity of the manufactory.

Condition
The service is presented in good conservation condition, with normal and slight signs of time compatible with its age, visible mainly on the back and along the feet. The porcelain is sound, the fish decoration well preserved, and the blue border with gilded thread overall intact, as visible in the attached images.

Shipping
Careful shipping with traceable courier, professional packing designed to guarantee maximum safety during transport.

Seller's Story

Vintage ceramics and porcelains are often worked and decorated with masterful precision and delicacy, they are objects of timeless charm, the result of knowledge handed down and widespread. From a historical and cultural point of view, they represent an extraordinary combination of craftsmanship and art, which takes the form of works of rare beauty. An authentic passion that drives me to identify shapes, models and decorations and to identify a possible or certain dating of the objects through a continuous study of sources and archives.
