Description from the seller
Beautiful dining set for 6 people consisting of 6 large flat plates with a diameter of 27.5 cm, produced in fine porcelain by the Portuguese manufacturer Vista Alegre.
All plates are decorated with the multicolored floral motif named "Market Place." On the back they bear the mark of the Portuguese porcelain manufacturer Vista Alegre and the name of the pattern.
Because of their diameter, they can also be used as placemats.
Excellent overall condition; the plates show craquelure traces: cracks typical of the earthenware material in which these plates were made.
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.
