Elegant Antique Rose Damask Banquet Table Service, Tablecloth and 12 Napkins

About the Item

A spectacular antique Rose du Barry Damask banquet table service in the Louis XV style comprised of a tablecloth, 120.75 inches by 63.5 inches and a set of twelve matching napkins, 20.25 inches square in superb condition. This color was created in honor of Madame du Barry, a favorite of Louis XV, who was widely admired for her exquisite taste. Loomed of a weighty elegant rose damask of contrasting satin and matte textures with hand finished hems and finely embroidered initials DRG. Both the tablecloth and napkins have a beautifully proportioned pattern of foliate scrolls in the classic French style. The tablecloth's two fine script monograms are on each side of rectangular center. Each of the napkins is monogramed in a central square surrounded by a crest shaped device with a luxurious scroll frame. This elegant dusky rose color is rarely seen in table linens and the effect, when fully displayed is unforgettable. This service likely dates from the turn of the Twentieth Century. The quality, design and hand finished details make this a marvelous find for lavish, memorable celebrations.

  • Antique Baccarat Crystal Empire Armorial Crest 34 Piece Stemware Service for 8
    By Baccarat
    Located in New York, NY
    Historically significant Baccarat Empire Simson Armorial Crest stemware service for 8 - champagne, wine, water and liqueur glasses and two superb wine decanters, each piece bearing the Simson crest 19th Century The Armorial crest is almost certainly that of Sampson Simson (1780-1857), a Jewish American philanthropist most notably remembered as the Father of Mount Sinai Hospital. Simson was born in Danbury, CT and expressed an early interest in law, attending Columbia University where he studied under Aaron Burr. He was admitted to the bar in 1802 and became one of the first Jewish lawyers in New York City. He retired several years later to devote himself to charitable work. In 1852, nine men, including Sampson Simpson, joined together to establish the Jew's Hospital in New York which later became Mount Sinai Hospital. Simson served as the first president of the hospital's Board of Directors, personally covering many of the expenses and donating the land upon which the hospital was originally built on West 28th Street between 7th and 8th Avenues. Baccarat introduced their iconic Harcourt pattern in 1841 and this service is from approximately the same time period, circa 1850. The Baccarat Empire pattern elevates the Harcourt design model with fine gilded decoration identical at the foot and rim to the Simson service. Armorial crests were executed by special commission which included the 1828 Louis de Bourbon Ewer, the Duke of Aosta service, Service de L'Elysee, Countess of Paris Service and those of other prominent individuals. The service includes: Wine decanter with handle: 10.5 inches high, 5.5 inches diameter Wine Decanter: 10.38 inches high, 5 inches diameter 8 champagne coupes: 5 inches high, 4 inches diameter 8 wine glasses: 5 inches high, 2.63 inches diameter 8 water glasses: 6.63 inches high, 3.57 inches diameter 8 liqueur glasses: 4.13 inches high, 2.13 inches diameter Condition: Very Good. very light age appropriate surface wear Baccarat registered its trademark in 1860 at which time a paper label began to be attached to pieces, very few of these labels have survived. Prior to this period, Baccarat pieces were unsigned, with the exception of some early paperweights bearing the letter B. Early Baccarat is identified by quality, pattern and references.
