Three graduated dishes in the same shaped silhouette... all white hard paste porcelain and all finished by hand with a gold rim and a fine inner gold filet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVieux Paris (meaning old Paris) refers to porcelain produced by the many small factories working in and around Paris through the 19th century, almost always unmarked, recognized instead by the quality of the porcelain itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe gold work was applied by hand, and you can see where it has softened and thinned along the high points of the rim. This is exactly the way gilding wears over a hundred and fifty years. The white porcelain underneath has stayed bright. The middle and smallest pieces nest neatly inside the largest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA graduated trio like this old Paris porcelain set is beautiful on the table at every course, perhaps filled with olives and almonds, maybe some cheese and figs... or perhaps a gratin or ratatouille.  However you use them, they are a welcome addition to any kitchen.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Provence Collection","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53504084083031,"sku":"TWE-002","price":475.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0938\/4686\/4215\/files\/antique-french-vieux-paris-porcelain-serving-dishes-set-of-three-19th-century-2.jpg?v=1778344345","url":"https:\/\/theprovencecollection.com\/products\/antique-french-vieux-paris-porcelain-serving-dishes-set-of-three-19th-century","provider":"The Provence Collection","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
