1851 Imperial Vienna Porcelain 27 piece Service for 18, very rare
About the Item
This extremely rare partial set of dinner service was produced
at the Royal Vienna Factory in 1851 under the direction of Baron
Leithner, ten years before the factory closed.
During Leithner's direction, the factory and it's artists were still
known for their splendid and expensive gilding which is displayed on each of the pieces in this set.
I purchased this set in the later 1980s from Butterfield and Butterfield, and was told that it was consigned by the estate
of a Austrian woman who brought the dishes over from Vienna. Purported the set was part of a very large set of dishes belonging to the household of the Empress Elizabeth
also known as "Sissi".
The set consists of: 18 plates at 9.25" diameter
One soup tureen, 14.5" L x 9.75" W x 11.25" H
One lidded sugar bowl, 5.25" L x 4.75" W x 6" H
One medium lidded tureen, 11.25" L x 7.75 W x 6.75" H
Two platers at, 14.5" L x 10.75" W x 2" H
Two round serving platers, 11.25" diameter x 2.5" height
One square serving plater, 11.25" x 11.25" x 2.5" H
One mustard / marmalade lidded pot with stand, 6" diameter, 5.5" height.
