A 20th C. Meissen Ballet Dancer "Chiarina" from Russian Ballet by Paul Scheurich
Located in New York, NY
A Beautiful 20th Century Meissen Ballet Dancer "Chiarina" from Russian Ballet by Paul Scheurich. Introducing the captivating Meissen Ballet Dancer "Chiarina" from the renowned Russian Ballet, artfully crafted by the esteemed Paul Scheurich. This exquisite porcelain figurine portrays an ethereal beauty, emanating elegance and grace. The dancer's attire is a visual feast for the eyes, featuring a delightful buttoned shirt that gently accentuates her waist. Adorned with meticulously painted, vibrant flowers and foliage in a harmonious array of reds, greens, yellows, and blues, all against a pristine white ground. Her lustrous black ringlet-styled hair gracefully peeks out from beneath a frilly white bonnet, adorned with turquoise flowers, adding an enchanting touch to her ensemble. The performer's artful makeup is reminiscent of the stage, with bright blush enhancing her cheeks, dark red lips exuding allure, and her eyes captivatingly enhanced with an array of colors. In a fluid dance movement, she gracefully swishes both arms to her left side, while simultaneously pointing her right foot, all the while delicately clutching the head of a flower in each hand. Her mesmerizing presence is further enhanced by a resplendent frilled and multi-ruffled skirt, accentuated with various shades of turquoise blue trimming and banding. Completing the picture of elegance, her ballet shoes, in a sweet pale yellow hue, are tastefully tied with pale pink ribbons, exuding a subtle touch of delicacy and refinement. Each intricate detail of this Meissen antique...

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.
