Description from the seller

Splendid fish serving set for 11 guests, made of fine Richard Ginori porcelain, with decals depicting fish. The decals are identical in pairs (6 different designs).

The origins of the sinuous style, characteristic of all Vecchio Ginori porcelains, date back to the 18th century. History has left us a small but meaningful detail: an expression through which this form was commonly referred to. A precious heritage of the past that still allows us to perceive its greatness and the strength that made it immune, almost detached, from the passage of centuries.
In the past, it was common to call 'alla sassone' that characteristic border of porcelain dishware and all other objects bearing this name. A saying justified by the 18th-century German tradition, according to which porcelain with reliefs similar to woven baskets was produced. Not coincidentally, 'ozier' is the more technical term used to describe this type of embossed decoration, whose translation from German to Italian directly refers to 'wicker basket.' A tradition embraced by the masters of the Manifattura, who made the weaves more delicate, the lines more sinuous, with a taste and craftsmanship uniquely Italian that have made this simple yet elegant motif immortal.

The plates are large, measuring 26 cm in diameter.

In excellent condition, very refined. One plate has a black spot on the porcelain, a cooking defect.

The photographs reflect the actual conditions of the object and are considered an integral part of this description.
