Description from the seller
Nice dinner service consisting of 6 19 cm flat plates, made in Diamond Stone by the Manifattura di Laveno in the 1960s, soon after the purchase by the Richard Ginori group.
The service is decorated with floral motifs in blue tones, inspired by English table porcelain. It is in good condition; two plates have small chips, not visible when placed on the table. Some pieces may show crazing, some typical cracks of porcelain in Diamond Stone.
Each piece bears the mark with the eagle of the Laveno manufactory and a cartouche with the letters RG, initials of Richard Ginori.
The service will be carefully packaged and shipped.
Seller's Story
My name is Riccardo, I recently graduated in Art History from the University of Florence and I am passionate about porcelain. From tableware to artist vases, from figurines to tea and coffee sets, I am fascinated by the mastery and the ability of great artisans and designers who shape this so fragile material, turning a raw mass into masterpieces with a story to tell. During my years at university I became interested in the history of 19th- and 20th-century tableware art; today, every day, I work with prestigious porcelain pieces that always have something to say to me and to those who purchase them. Of my work I love that I can discover more about the objects I find as I travel around Italy, always learning something new. I always strive to convey to my clients this passion I have for the objects I sell, certain that each one of them has a story to tell: the story of who created it, the story of who preserved it, and the story of who will give it a new life.
