Pearl Europa Salad or Dessert Plate, 7.5" by Nymphenburg Porcelain
Pearl Europa Salad or Dessert Plate, 7.5" by Nymphenburg Porcelain
A rim of pure 24-carat gold and a subtle beige combined with acanthus leaves, accentuated by red trimming, emphasize the classic character of this service. Perfect for 5 o’clock tea.
Designed by the Bohemian sculptor, Dominikus Auliczek (1734-1804), the Pearl service in the Louis XVI style that gets its name from a bar of pearls that runs along the borders of the individual items. For the first time in the history of European porcelain, Auliczek based his service on a dodecagon shape – instead of the usual round shape.
Other pieces in the service are also adorned with acanthus leaves – a typical motif in classical art and architecture, which Auliczek was able to study during his trips around Italy.
The PEARL shape is today also available in white, three in-glaze designs (blue, yellow, green) and painted with pearl decorations in gold or blue as well as in a pure gold decoration. A special version was reserved as the Royal Bavarian Service for the Wittelsbach family, a similar pattern is available as Fantasia.
