AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Splendid and colorful dining set for 6, produced by the Italian manufacturer Primula.
The set consists of 6 flat plates with a diameter of 25.5 cm.
Each piece of the set is decorated with an elegant green contour edge painted by hand, another green line further inward, and at the center of the plate, a refined decalcomania reproducing a flower taken from botanical studies. The pattern echoes the famous 'Botanica' motif by Villeroy & Boch.
Excellent condition, minor flaws related to the artisanal nature of the production.
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.
