Description from the seller
Elegant and scenographic Johnson Bros. England table service, model Malvern Blue, characterized by a refined blue floral decoration on a white background that echoes the famous Zwiebelmuster.
The decoration features a rich composition of flowers, leaves, small fruits and vines, harmoniously distributed on the surface of the plates. Particularly characteristic are the shaped and slightly wavy forms of the dishes, which follow the profile of the decoration and give the service an elegant and sophisticated appearance. The floral motif develops both in the central part and along the edge, creating a composition that is rich yet balanced.
The set is complete for 5 people and consists of:
5 flat plates
5 appetizer or dessert plates
5 bowl-shaped soup plates
1 sauce boat
1 gravy boat
1 oval salad bowl
The mark on the back identifies the historic Johnson Bros. England manufactory and lists information related to the decoration under glaze and to acid-resistant colors. The designation Malvern Blue identifies the model of the service. The result is a piece with a characteristic English taste, elegant yet convivial, ideal for a classic table, a country house, or a mise en place with a traditional flavor.
Good general condition, small defects highlighted in the photograph.
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 artistic vases, from figurines to tea and coffee sets, I am fascinated by the mastery and creativity of great artisans and designers who manage to shape this fragile material, transforming a rough mass into masterpieces with a story to tell. During my years at university I began to become interested in the history of nineteenth- and twentieth-century tableware; today, every day, I deal with prestigious porcelain pieces that always have something to say to me and to those who purchase them. I love that every day I can discover more about the objects I find while traveling around Italy, always learning something new. I always try to convey to my clients this passion I have for the objects I sell, certain that each of them has a story to tell: that of the creator, that of the one who preserved it, and that of the person who will give it a new life.
