Description from the seller
Magnificent 12-person service from the prestigious Italian manufacturer Richard Ginori. The service is realized in the form of the Doccia model, one of the most celebrated by the famous manufactory. The shape of these plates still echoes the original 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 today.
The plates are also adorned with a gold trim along the edge. On the rims are elegant multicolored floral decals.
The service is composed as follows:
12 soup plates
12 dinner plates
A table service with classic lines, Doccia is the place where, in 1735, from the artistic and entrepreneurial insight of Marquis Carlo Ginori, the historic Manifattura was born, the factory of white gold. 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 our own, timeless in its beauty.
The plates are in good condition: none show cracks; the decals and the gold trim may appear slightly faded on some plates. The photographs show the actual condition of the item.
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.
