21 Blue Gold Dessert Dishes With All Serving Dishes See Image 2 England 1810
Located in Katonah, NY
This hand painted English porcelain dessert service features the exquisite Blue Chrysanthemum pattern, combining deep blue with the allure of gold.
It's a fabulous combination!
The golden chrysanthemum leaves are richly gilded, creating a beautiful contrast against the deep blue background.
This gorgeous 32-piece service consists of 21 dessert plates and all the serving shapes: a centerpiece and pairs of square-shaped dishes, shell-shaped dishes, oval-shaped dishes, and a fabulous pair of sauce tureens with their underplates.
Made by Coalport circa 1810, this Regency Period pattern was inspired by similar Chinese designs of the 18th century.
In Chinese lore, chrysanthemums represent a long and happy life because they bloom at the end of summer.
In addition to their beauty, these dishes symbolize happiness and overall well-being.
Dimensions: The diameter of the set of twelve dessert plates is 8.35"
The diameter of the set of nine dessert plates is 7.5"
Centerpiece 12" x 8" 4" tall
Pair of shell-shaped plates 7.75" x 7.75"
Pair of square-shaped dishes 8.5" x 8.5"
Pair of oval-shaped dishes 11" x 7.5"
Pair of sauce tureens on stands 9" x 7" height 6"
Condition: Very good to Excellent, with very slight rubbing to the gilt (see images).
Price: $14,650

Antique and Vintage Serveware, Ceramics, Silver and Glass
Your dining room table is a place where stories are shared and personalities shine — why not treat yourself and your guests to the finest antique and vintage glass, silver, ceramics and serveware for your meals?
Just like the people who sit around your table, your serveware has its own stories and will help you create new memories with your friends and loved ones. From ceramic pottery to glass vases, set your table with serving pieces that add even more personality, color and texture to your dining experience.
Invite serveware from around the world to join your table settings. For special occasions, dress up your plates with a striking Imari charger from 19th-century Japan or incorporate Richard Ginori’s Italian porcelain plates into your dining experience. Celebrate the English ritual of afternoon tea with a Japanese tea set and an antique Victorian kettle. No matter how big or small your dining area is, there is room for the stories of many cultures and varied histories, and there are plenty of ways to add pizzazz to your meals.
Add different textures and colors to your table with dinner plates and pitchers of ceramic and silver or a porcelain lidded tureen, a serving dish with side handles that is often used for soups. Although porcelain and ceramic are both made in a kiln, porcelain is made with more refined clay and is more durable than ceramic because it is denser. The latter is ideal for statement pieces — your tall mid-century modern ceramic vase is a guaranteed conversation starter. And while your earthenware or stoneware is maybe better suited to everyday lunches as opposed to the fine bone china you’ve reserved for a holiday meal, handcrafted studio pottery coffee mugs can still be a rich expression of your personal style.
“My motto is ‘Have fun with it,’” says author and celebrated hostess Stephanie Booth Shafran. “It’s yin and yang, high and low, Crate & Barrel with Christofle silver. I like to mix it up — sometimes in the dining room, sometimes on the kitchen banquette, sometimes in the loggia. It transports your guests and makes them feel more comfortable and relaxed.”
Introduce elegance at supper with silver, such as a platter from celebrated Massachusetts silversmith manufacturer Reed and Barton or a regal copper-finish flatware set designed by International Silver Company, another New England company that was incorporated in Meriden, Connecticut, in 1898. By then, Meriden had already earned the nickname “Silver City” for its position as a major hub of silver manufacturing.
At the bar, try a vintage wine cooler to keep bottles cool before serving or an Art Deco decanter and whiskey set for after-dinner drinks — there are many possibilities and no wrong answers for tableware, barware and serveware. Explore an expansive collection of antique and vintage glass, ceramics, silver and serveware today on 1stDibs.
