Publisher's Synopsis
Frankenthal Porcelain Set.
The porcelain manufacturer Frankenthal of Electoral Palatinate came into being at the height of the Rococo period, blossomed in the delicate classicism of Louis Seize, and foundered in the revolutionary wars. It refined the culture of the table and the salon, produced exquisite objects for everyday use for the aristocracy and the bourgeoisie, as well as crockery, vases, potpourris, chandeliers, and a world of porcelain figures that mirrored the elegant era itself.
