About the Item
PRESENTING an AMAZING, EXTREMELY RARE and EXTENSIVE Early 19C Davenport Longport Imari China Dinner Service from circa 1805-1820.
HIGH REGENCY PERIOD/ERA.
This is WITHOUT A DOUBT, the finest (and probably largest) Dinner Service we have EVER seen!
It numbers 175 pieces in total!
It was MOST DEFINITELY, made for one of the large Manor Houses in the UK, during the Reign of George III
(Very Downton Abbey-esque!)
We are of the opinion that it was ‘custom’ made by Davenport for it’s original owner, probably a Baron, Baroness, Lord, Lady, Duke or Duchess ….. take your pick of ‘nobility’!
Just consider the Dinner Party, where you would need over 60 Dinner Plates. It is easy to conclude that this service, being over 200 years old, has suffered some losses over the centuries and could very easily have been a 100 piece dinner service when originally produced.
The pattern and style, is an homage to ‘Japanese Imari Style China”, with it’s classic Imari cobalt blue, green, orange and pink floral designs/patterns, all accentuated by GORGEOUS 24k gold gilt work.
What makes this particular pattern and service SO RARE and OUTSTANDING is the incorporation of royal/sky blue patterns/panels/chevrons, on all pieces.
You could search all your life and not find this pattern …. ‘let alone’ a Service of 175 pieces.
We are of the opinion, that the use and addition of the ‘royal blue’ chevrons on this service, could also indicate that this service was quite possibly, originally made, for a member of the ‘British Royal family’.
Provenance: From a Private Collection in Houston, TX. The service was originally purchased by an ancestor, from Cains Inc. (High-End Dealers) in Bossier City, LA in 1979 for a ‘SUBSTANTIAL’ sum. We possess the receipt.
Condition: Mainly in very good original condition. The largest game platter has a historic repair (metal staples) and one open tureen has a crack and historic repair. One small lidded tureen has a replacement handle and some repairs to stand for large lidded tureen/centerpiece. Some other pieces has very minor losses and one or two repairs but, otherwise this Service is in ‘VERY GOOD’ condition for it’s age and use.
The large lidded tureen centerpiece, is worth around $12,000, on it’s own. A similar, single medium sized Tureen, but not this pattern (with the Royal Blue), would cost you over $3,500 and a single Plate around $500. Now do the math! LOL

19th Century Samson Paris Porcelain Trinket Box
By Samson & Cie
Located in Dallas, TX
Presenting a gorgeous French 19th century Samson Paris Porcelain Trinket Box probably by Edme Samson.
Marked on the base with “Made in France” and unmistakably in the style and manner of Samson.
The lid features hand painted floral bouquets on an ivory porcelain background with gold edging, surrounded by a sky blue lid with gold web or crackling effect.. The lid is hinged and the lid and base are edged in floral gilt metal mounts with Fleur De Lis clasp. It sits on 4 gilt metal or ormolu feet. The sides are likewise hand decorated.
This wonderful antique hand painted box is just bursting with History. Inspired by Edme Samson of Samson & Co., Paris. we believe (based upon the markings and natural aging) that it was made between 1880– 1890 in France and was meant to resemble an antique of a much earlier period. It is very similar to Sevres pieces with it’s color, decoration and design.
Samson specialized in reproducing antiques from the 1600 and 1700s. One of his most interesting works was his Heraldic or Armorial pieces. With this medium sized box, he was not only copying the larger porcelain caskets or coffin boxes...
