Description from the seller
Elegant complete dinner service for 12, made by the historic Italian manufacturer Richard Ginori in the 1950s or 1960s. It features an elegant multicolored floral decoration in delicate shades and a fine gold border. “Lorena” shape, cream-colored porcelain.
The decoration is applied very discreetly across the pieces: a lovely white lily in bloom on the rim. The result is bright and airy, with intentionally understated decoration that leaves plenty of the cream-colored porcelain visible.
The plates have a simple, harmonious shape, enhanced by a fine gold line along the edge. A distinctive feature of the “Lorena” shape is the six elegant decorative details along the plate profiles, which lend the set extra refinement.
The set is complete for 12 people and comprises 41 pieces in total:
12 dinner plates, one with a defect
12 soup plates
12 appetizer or dessert plates, one with a defect
1 soup tureen
1 round platter
1 oval platter
1 salad bowl
1 relish dish
A lovely, refined service, ideal for a bright, traditional table, but also suitable for everyday use thanks to its simple shapes and delicate decoration.
In excellent overall condition; the gold is still remarkably bright. Please note that the salad bowl has knife marks on the base and slight losses to the gilding. Two plates have a chip.
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.
