Description from the seller

Magnificent service for 6 people from the prestigious Italian manufacture Richard Ginori. The service is crafted in the form of the model "Doccia", one of the most famous from the renowned manufactory. The shape of these dishes still echoes the first Doccia model, which, unlike the "Antico Doccia" model reissued by Richard Ginori from the late 20th century, has smaller plate diameters, in line with the taste of the 1950s and 1960s, different from the modern one.

The dishes are adorned with a gold thread that runs along the profile. On the edge of the dishes there is an additional decoration: a bouquet of flowers of different types and colors.

The service is composed as follows:
6 appetizer plates
6 soup plates
6 flat plates
1 salad bowl
1 compote
1 round tray

Table service with classic lines, Doccia is the place where in 1735, from the artistic and entrepreneurial intuition of Marquis Carlo Ginori, the historic Manifattura was born, the factory of white gold. The Doccia shape defines the deepest essence, which identifies the manufactory in the world as the Maison of excellence of pure porcelain and design. Curved lines and a profile inspired by late-Baroque Florentine silverware make Doccia a timeless collection. The essential white evokes a sense of returning home, to a place all of our own, timeless in its beauty.

The dishes are in overall excellent condition. It is noted that one dish is a replacement from a service with a similar Winterling Bavaria ornament; one dish has a small chip. The flat and soup plates feature a more recent mark than the saucers and the serving set; the crimping, typical of the "Doccia" model, is also slightly deeper on the plates with the newer mark, as shown 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.
