In the style of the East India Company, for the Swedish mark - Lot 271
In the style of the East India Company, for the Swedish market—20th century A 53-piece service 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 on the lid, wear on the gold) 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 gravy boat. W. 19 cm - 2 bowls. Diameter 18.5 cm - 6 plates. Diameter 23.5 cm - 6 medium plates. Diameter 20 cm - 6 small plates. Diameter: 15 cm - 6 soup plates. Diameter: 21 cm - 6 small soup plates. Diameter: 18.5 cm - 6 coffee cups and 7 saucers The coat-of-arms service of 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 therefore appears that this design was commissioned through another family or company still operating there.
