Description from the seller

Noble service for 6 people from the prestigious Italian manufacture Richard Ginori. The service is made in the shape 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 twentieth century, has smaller dish diameters, in line with the tastes of the Fifties and Sixties, different from modern ones.

The dishes are enhanced by the gold trim that runs along the profile. On the edge of the dishes there is an alternating decoration: a bouquet of flowers of different types and colors.

The service is composed as follows:
6 antipasto plates
6 deep plates
6 flat plates
1 salad bowl
1 gravy boat
1 round tray

Service for the table with classic lines, Doccia is the place where in 1735 from the artistic and entrepreneurial intuition of Marchese Carlo Ginori the historic Manifattura, the factory of white gold, was born. The Doccia shape defines the deepest essence that identifies the manufactory in the world as a 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 coming home, to a place all ours, timeless in its beauty.

The dishes are in generally excellent condition. It should be noted that one plate is a replacement from a service with a similar decoration by Winterling Bavaria; one plate has a small chip.
The flat and deep dishes feature a more recent mark than the small plates and the serving set; even the fluting, typical of the "Doccia" model, is slightly deeper on the dishes 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.
