Richard Ginori - Table service for 12 (37) - Porcelain, Ceramic - Elegance

ELEGANT GINORI DINNER SERVICE – 37 PIECES – GEOMETRIC GOLD AND BROWN DECORATION – HISTORIC LAVENO SOUP TOT – ITALIAN TWENTIETH-CENTURY MANUFACTURE Refined dinner service consisting of 37 pieces in total, characterized by a classic line of great elegance, luminous white porcelain and a very distinctive geometric border decoration, enriched with gold finishes. A remarkably impressive ensemble, expression of the tradition of the great Italian ceramic manufactories of the twentieth century. The service comprises 36 Richard Ginori dishes, accompanied by a splendid soup tureen from the historic Laveno manufactory, perfectly harmonized in style, proportions and decorative taste. COMPOSITION OF THE SERVICE – 37 PIECES • 12 flat plates • 12 soup plates • 12 appetizers or dessert plates • 1 large soup tureen with lid and side handles Total: 37 pieces. THE DECOR – GEOMETRY, RHYTHM AND GILDING The decoration of the plates is characterized by a refined sequence of small vertical, slender elements arranged radially along the entire circumference. The motif, almost a sequence of stylized rays, alternates brown tones and gold reflections, creating a rhythmically elegant effect. A fine gold border accentuates the profile of the plates, enhancing their shape and lending the whole ensemble notable luminosity. The contrast between the white porcelain and the richness of the decoration yields a remarkably balanced result, sober yet sophisticated. A decoration capable of dialoguing with both classical place settings and contemporary environments, in which the service can become a true centerpiece of the table. THE LAVENO SOUP TUREEN – A MAGNIFICENT COMPLEMENT Particularly beautiful is the large soup tureen with lid, belonging to the historic production of the Laveno manufactory. Its elegant form features a broad, rounded body, two shaped side handles, a slightly wavy rim and a lid embellished with a refined perforated knob with gold details. The decoration is more restrained than that of the plates, but the proportions, the white ceramic and the gold finishes create a harmonious pairing. The soup tureen does not necessarily belong to the same original service as the plates. Its mark is indeed different. The lot was acquired with all these elements already gathered and is offered in the same arrangement, respecting its original discovery context. A particularly successful pairing that highlights two important traditions of Italian ceramics. LAVENO AND RICHARD GINORI – TWO GREAT ITALIAN TRADITIONS The Laveno manufactory holds a prominent place in the history of Italian ceramics, thanks to production that combines technical quality, formal research and decorative elegance. During the twentieth century, Laveno and Richard Ginori represented two major players in the national ceramic sector, distinguished by the richness of their respective productions and by their contribution to disseminating Italian taste at the table and in the decorative arts. The soup tureen presented here recalls precisely that tradition of serving pieces in which functionality and aesthetic research fuse into particularly refined forms. The pairing with Ginori plates is therefore interesting also from a historical and collectible perspective. Conditions Excellent overall preservation. The service is very well kept, with bright surfaces, well-preserved decorations and particularly beautiful gilding, still rich in brilliance. Natural signs of aging and use are present, as is typical for objects of their era. The soup tureen distinguishes itself for the elegance of its shapes and the good preservation of the gold finishes. Overall, a service of notable aesthetic quality, carefully preserved and ready to be used or appreciated within a collection. USE AND DECORATIVE VALUE The complete 12-person composition makes this service particularly interesting both for refined everyday use and for special occasions. Perfect for large tables, receptions, important lunches, classic and contemporary settings, but also for vintage arrangements and collections dedicated to Italian ceramics. The presence of the soup tureen adds a highly valued scenic element, transforming the set into a complete and highly personalized ensemble. An elegant and versatile lot, capable of enhancing an important table without sacrificing the sobriety and balance of the forms. 20 HASHTAGS
