THREE CUPS, SHOWER, MANIFATTURA GINORI, 1750 CIRCA in porcelain painted in monochrome and gold, bell-shaped, without handle. The surface shows the "red cockerel" decoration, an ornament that in the Ginori factory is indicated in a "Tariffa delle Porcellane dipinte" and seems to date back to 1747, often executed from the first years of production with chromatic variations in green, blue, red, orange, with or without touches of gold. These three cups represent an example of how the morphology of the cup and of the decoration changed within the manufactory; h. cm 6,2 (2) and cm 7,1 (1) THREE GINORI CUPS, DOCCIA, CIRCA 1750 Bibliography for comparison M.
