Description from the seller

Important, imposing and luxurious full dining service set with serving pieces, crafted in fine and translucent hard white porcelain from the legendary Bernardaud Limoges manufactory.
The service embodies the essence of French minimalist elegance through the famous model "Vannerie". The absolute purity of white porcelain (blanc de Chine style) is highlighted by a complex continuous relief work that imitates a dense weave of basketry and wicker. This geometric relief masterfully captures light, giving dynamism and a deep plastic texture to every single piece. Of extraordinary executive value is the monumental large soup tureen, whose lid is crowned by a refined sculpted knop in the shape of a stylized bloom with acanthus leaves modeled in relief.
A regal, sophisticated and timeless service, perfect for both modern-design tables and classical high-representation settings.

The service consists of:
* 24 Flat plates 25ø
* 12 Deep plates / bowls 23ø
* 12 Dessert / fruit plates 21.5ø
* 1 Large monumental soup tureen 24ø
* 1 Large salad bowl / deep cup with wavy edge and braided rim 25ø
* 1 Large oval service plate 39x30
* 1 Platter / small oval dish 23.5x12
* 1 large round serving plate 30ø

HISTORY OF THE BRAND: BERNARDAUD LIMOGES
Founded in 1863 in Limoges, the Bernardaud house has been for over 150 years a synonym of excellence, fine arts craftsmanship and French industrial luxury. Official supplier to royal courts, embassies and the world’s most prestigious hotels and starred restaurants, the manufactory stands out for the use of a secret kaolin blend that gives porcelain a unique whiteness and extraordinary translucence.
The original mark impressed underglaze "- Vannerie - BERNARDAUD LIMOGES France" guarantees the absolute authenticity of the line and places it in the second half of the 20th century.

CONDITION REPORT
The service is in showroom condition, like new.
* Porcelain and glaze: structurally perfect. No chipping, crazing, cracks or restorations on any element. The protective glaze is fully intact, shiny and bright.
* Reliefs: The raised details of the "Vannerie" motif and the plastic parts (such as the handles and the soup tureen knop) are sharp, crisp and free from wear or rubbing from storage. (Exceptional condition set, comparable to an never-used service).

PROFESSIONAL PACKAGING AND INSURED MULTI-COLLIER SHIPMENT
Being fine Limoges porcelain of very high value, the shipment will be carried out according to the most stringent safety standards for transport:
* Multi-Parcel Shipment: The set will be strictly divided into separate cardboard boxes reinforced with double-wall corrugation to distribute weight and eliminate crushing risks.
* Individual Packaging: Each plate and special piece will be wrapped individually in multiple layers of high-thickness bubble wrap. Stacks will be separated by polystyrene spacers.
* Tracking and Insurance: Shipment via international express courier with real-time tracking code.

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.
