Free shipping via Russian Post! We have many Lilac sets of various years available! During the Soviet era, tableware depicting various flowers, such as roses, daisies, and carnations, was very popular. But the "Lilac" service, produced by Dulevo Porcelain Factory, is truly considered legendary. It was a dream for Soviet citizens and remains a favorite among collectors to this day. The artistic design of this service cannot be called innovative: images of lilac branches are applied using decal transfer (printing) onto items of a very common and versatile "Tulip" shape with fluted sides, and the edges are gilded. This motif is known since pre-revolutionary times; it can be found frequently on Kuznetsov and Gardner porcelain, as well as on products from other manufacturers. The "Lilac" service was produced until the late 1960s. Other factories also used this motif in their tableware, such as the Konakovsky Faience Factory named after M.I. Kalinin, the “Proletary” and “Krasny Farforist” factories, and the Riga Porcelain Factory. Lilac was also depicted on dinner services (such as the one seen in Raisa Zakharovna’s house in the film "Love and Pigeons"). But this tableware was never as popular as the Dulevo tea service. The lightness and airiness of the porcelain, the tenderness and naturalism of the lilac, which seems to exude the fragrance of spring, the understandability of the motif, and the cheerfulness – perhaps it is for these qualities that we value the enduring bouquet created by the masters of the Dulevo Porcelain Factory.
