Imperial Deluxe by Sango Japan "Louis" – 60-Piece Fine China Dinner Service, 1973 An elegant 60-piece fine porcelain dinner service for 8 people, produced by Imperial Deluxe by Sango Japan in 1973 in the sought-after "Louis" pattern. Purchased in the United States and preserved within the same family ever since, the service has been displayed in a cabinet for most of its life and used only on a few special occasions. Each place setting consists of 7 pieces, including dinner plate, soup plate, dessert plate, bread & butter plate, cup, saucer and fruit/salad bowl. The service is complemented by its original serving pieces, including a large oval serving platter, vegetable serving bowl, gravy boat with underplate, covered sugar bowl, cream jug and additional serving items. Crafted from high-quality white fine china, the set features an elegant olive-green border enriched with generous hand-applied gold decoration, reflecting the refined tableware design of the 1970s. Every piece bears the original Imperial Deluxe by Sango Japan factory mark. The set remains in excellent vintage condition. All porcelain pieces are free from cracks, hairlines and restorations. The gold decoration shows only very light age-related wear. The gravy boat has one small chip on the rim, clearly shown in the photographs, which does not affect either its functionality or overall presentation. Complete Sango "Louis" services in this condition are becoming increasingly difficult to find, making this an attractive opportunity for collectors of fine Japanese porcelain as well as for those seeking a beautiful and fully usable vintage dining service.
