​Lot Description:
Magnificent vintage dinner and tea service in fine French faience, manufactured by the renowned Keller & Guérin (K&G) pottery in Lunéville - Badonviller, France.
​• Era / Dating: This combined stamp and decoration date precisely to the mid-20th century (the 1950s), showcasing the refinement of French table arts of that era.
​• Model and Decor: Collection model "Vence", with a clear original hallmark under the pieces. Romantic decor composed of roses in Old Rose (British Rose) and burgundy, secondary buttons in ivory/soft white tones, and green rose leaves.
​• The Charm of Gadroons: Stunning gadrooned relief (spiral-woven molding) on all pieces, enhanced by a fine gold rim that catches the light beautifully.
Condition Report:
The set is in generally good vintage condition for its age. Due to its age and normal use, a few minor details are noted for full transparency (see photos):
​Traces of use and gilding: Presence of light signs of use typical for its age, translating into a patina or discreet wear on the gilt borders.
Stamp / Seals: The majority of pieces carry the original stamp clearly on the back. However, on about 3 to 5 flat plates, the stamp has faded or worn away over time and with washing (pieces guaranteed 100% authentic and identical to the rest of the service).
Oval serving platter: Has two small discreet chips on the edge.
Large flat plates (2 plates affected out of 22):
The first shows a micro hairline (slight crack) of about 1 cm, visible discreetly on the front face, but invisible on the back.
The second shows a slight hairline visible on the front face, but invisible on the back.
The remaining 20 plates and all other pieces of the service are in good condition.
