Pillivuyt - Table service (8) - Porcelain - For 8 people

Tableware set for 8 people composed of 8 shell-shaped porcelain dishes from the prestigious French manufacture Pillivuyt. Present in the Berry (central France) for 200 years, Pillivuyt is one of the oldest and most prestigious French porcelain brands. From the beginning, the company has been deeply rooted in local tradition. The brand bears the name of its founder: Louis Charles Pillivuyt. The company remained family-run from its creation until World War II. Over the years, Pillivuyt has distinguished itself not only nationally but also internationally. From the United States to Australia, via the United Kingdom, Pillivuyt has stood out since 1823 as one of the world leaders of French porcelain. The manufacture has won no fewer than 5 World Expos: 1855 (Paris), 1862 (London), 1867 (Paris), 1878 (Paris) and 1889 (Paris). Since the early 20th century, Pillivuyt has created some products that have become emblematic today, such as the “Bistro cup” or the “Lion Head soup tureen.” Today, master porcelain makers perpetuate their know-how, which rewards quality and 100% French manufacturing. This know-how allowed Pillivuyt to receive the label “Entreprise du Patrimoine Vivant,” which distinguishes French companies with authentic expertise. Some traditional and century-old production practices have been preserved, such as artisanal workmanship. Excellent condition. Dimensions: 4x17x14 cm. Rare object.
