Crystallines: Designer signature etched/cerographed on each piece by designer "Marcello Aglieri".
Prestigious and imposing combined table service for 12 people, designed for the most formal and elegant receptions.
The lot stands out for the union of two excelsior manufactories, harmonized stylistically by the luxurious and elegant edge in glossy zecchino gold. Fine Bavarian Porcelain (105 Total Pieces) The ceramic service was made with a high-density body (Extra Fein) and treated with a special patented glaze called "Einschnitt", specifically designed to resist deep scratches and cuts from cutlery. Standout feature: The set includes an exceptional complement of as many as 24 soup plates, a rarity ideal for handling double courses of first courses or complex menus. It includes flat plates, dessert plates, coordinated large serving platters (oval and round), a salad bowl and a serving tureen.
Designer Crystal by Marcello Aglieri (37 Total Pieces) The table is completed by a set of high-refractive-index crystal glasses and service pieces, signed by the well-known Italian designer Marcello Aglieri.

11 Wine Glasses (with gold rim)
12 Champagne Flutes (with gold rim)
1 Water or soft drink jug coordinated
1 Bottle / Wine decanter with original crystal stopper
Never used.
Structural integrity: Excellent, as new. No chipping, cracking or structural defects observed on both porcelain pieces and crystals. State of the Gold Zecchino: Perfect. The gilding on the edges of all 143 pieces remains shiny, intact and uniform, without typical wear from washing or rubbing. Glass transparency: The crystals are perfectly clear and brilliant, free from calcite opacities.
Two defects to declare:
1) the water glasses are 11
2) a teacup has a small rim chip
NOTES ON PACKAGING AND SHIPPING: Given the exceptional fragility, value, and large volume of the lot (143 pieces), professional, tailor-made packaging is guaranteed: use of bubble wrap for each single piece. Internal reinforced boxes separated by type (porcelain and crystal divided). Possible pallet shipment (pallet) fully trackable. Immediate availability, including for in-person pickup at the buyer’s expense.
