Richard Ginori coffee service, 40 years
Watching this flirty coffee service, which now has about 70 years, I can not help but think of how to change the habits bon ton in welcoming friends and acquaintances at home. Among the wedding gifts of coffee and then the services from the abounded: they were part of the ritual of receipt: those who did not offer and did not serve coffee or tea cups in the appropriate block was not worthy to return to the ranks of the civilized middle class period.
" Milk? Sugar? How? " Yay for dairy and sugar, to be handled with corcospezione, given the fragility and, at times, precious.
regurgitated beliefs of cups, cups and saucers, nice shot glass (it was the fashion vemouth and marsala), trays and trays more or less silver nobles, Capodimonte favors in abundance ... The result was
un'accozaglia of objects and objects made of porcelain and ceramics, is in view (the most scenic and representative), is hidden behind the doors of dining room furniture ...
gozzaniane atmospheres ... the good things in bad taste ...
Miss Felicita, it's your day!
At this time you do? Tosti coffee:
and good aroma fills around?
................................................. .................
and simple dish and flowers ...
................................................. .................
M'era sweeter starmene
between the utensils in the kitchen in vivid colors:
tacevi you, Miss kept quiet ...
................................................. .................
eyes ... and still, the sincere
blue irises of a blue dish ...
(from "Miss Happiness" Guido Gozzano)
Ah, mon Dieu, me there I drown in this atmosphere, I look at the Ginori cups, all with a little flower inside ... different from each other ... and I wonder if we are not exaggerating with the disposable today that kills the poetry of the dishes.
