RICHARD GINORI - Table service for 12 (52) - Porcelain - Rare - elegance

Important and refined table service by Richard Ginori, model “Impero,” one of the most iconic historic models of the prestigious Florentine manufactory Richard Ginori. Complete for 12 people (52 pieces total) The Impero model represents one of the classic lines of Ginori’s 20th-century production and stands out for its elegant and harmonious neoclassical-inspired shapes, enriched by a delicate filet in fine gold that enhances the purity of white porcelain. Founded in 1735 by Marquis Carlo Ginori, the Ginori manufactory is considered one of the absolute excellences of European porcelain, often compared with the great historic houses such as Meissen, Sèvres, and Royal Copenhagen. The Impero model, together with the historic Colonna and Vecchio Ginori models, represents one of the pillars of Italian table tradition and of high-porcelain production destined for grand residences and elegant dining. Thanks to the sober yet extremely refined design, this model remains today among the most appreciated and collected services of Ginori production. ⸻ Composition of the service • 12 antipasto / dessert plates • 12 soup plates • 23 flat plates • 1 gravy boat with underplate • 3 oval serving plates (medium, large, and very large) • 1 pedestal bride (ideal for fruit, desserts or table presentations) Very rich and scenographic service. ⸻ Brand On the bottom of the pieces there is the Richard Ginori mark with a red stamp “Decoration executed by Richard Ginori,” typical of mid-20th century productions. ⸻ Conditions The service presents itself in good overall condition, with typical signs of age and slight wear of the gold filet in some spots, compatible with age and use. The porcelain appears intact and well preserved. ⸻ Collectibility interest The Impero model is one of the most representative services in Ginori’s history and continues to be highly sought after for: • timeless classic elegance • very high porcelain quality • historical significance in the Ginori manufactory • great versatility in modern elegant table settings A complete service that represents an authentic piece of Italian porcelain tradition. ⸻ Hashtag
