Description
In the style of the East India Company, for the Swedish market – 20th century A service comprising 53 pieces in polychrome and gold-glazed porcelain, decorated with the coat of arms of the af Wirsen family – a Swedish family ennobled in 1812 – and friezes of spearheads, comprising: - 1 soup tureen (chip to the lid, wear to the gilding) H. 20 cm W. 27 cm - 2 large serving dishes. Diam. 36 x 26 cm - 1 oval deep dish. W. 29 cm - 1 round deep dish. Diam. 23 cm - 2 oval serving dishes. W. 26 cm - 1 sauce boat. W. 19 cm - 2 bowls. Diam. 18.5 cm - 6 plates. Diam. 23.5 cm - 6 medium plates. Diam. 20 cm - 6 small plates. Diam. 15 cm - 6 soup plates. Diam. 21 cm - 6 small soup plates. Diam. 18.5 cm - 6 coffee cups and 7 saucers The coat-of-arms service belonging to the Swedish noble family af Wirsen, which served as the model for this one, is one of the last coat-of-arms services produced in China for the Swedish market during the reign of Jiaqing (1796–1820). At that time, the Swedish East India Company no longer had a trading post in China. It would therefore appear that this design was commissioned through another family or another company still operating there.
