Bohemian Manufactory, Important Table Service, Czechoslovakia, 20th Century
50 white porcelain plates with a gold thread with a lattice pattern. The whole bears a coat of arms depicting an ostrich holding a horseshoe in its beak, surmounting a ducal crown.
Composition :
24 plates
12 soup plates
14 dessert plates
Commentary :
Bohemian crystal is a type of glass with a significant amount of lead oxide, as clear as rock crystal that produces a high quality crystal. In the course of the second half of the 14th century, the oldest Czech glassworks were manufacturing nearly pure crystal, with yellow and green reflections, as well as coloured glass, very popular during the Renaissance. Bohemia excelled in crystal manufacturing particularly in the 18th century through the creativity and the high-level qualification of the workers, leaving in the shade Venetian glassmakers who until then were unrivalled. Many of them came in Western Europe and brought their technics.
