In 1790, the Danish Crown Prince and later King Frederick VI ordered a dinner service with Flora Danica motifs from the Royal Porcelain Manufactory in Copenhagen. The service was to be a gift for the Russian Tsarina Catherine the Great. However, her death in 1796 prevented the delivery. Frederick received the service at the end of 1802; it was first used for his birthday banquet on 29 January 1803. The production of the service became the life's work of artists working as porcelain painters, such as the Nuremberg-born painter Johann Christoph Bayer (1738-1812) and his son Johann Theodor (1782-1873). Of the original 1802 individual pieces, about 1500 still remain, most of which are still used today at state banquets in Christiansborg Palace. Parts are on display in Rosenborg and Amalienborg Castles. It is still produced and sold in the trade by Royal Copenhagen.
Provenance: Private collection of a Munich antique dealer.
