Description from the seller
Rare complete tableware set for 6 people made by Freda Capodimonte.
The set is decorated with a gold border and decals depicting roses.
The set consists of:
5 dinner plates, 17 cm
1 round platter, 24 cm
Excellent overall condition. All plates are intact throughout. Slight crazing on some of the plates. One plate has a glaze smudge.
Freda Capodimonte Manufactory, founded in the early postwar period by Angelo Freda, an Abruzzese who settled in Naples. The manufactory was acquired in the 1950s by the Laveno manufactory, part of the Richard Ginori group.
A very rare piece.
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.
