Part of Princess Luise’s of Prussia wedding service

In the 18th century, the king gave every Prussian princess a service in porcelain made by the Royal manufacture. These sets consisted of a dinner service, a dessert service and a surtout including vases, salad bowls, baskets and figurines. The dessert plates and other tableware made for Princess Louise, daughter of Queen Louise and King Frederick William III, who married Prince Frederick of the Netherlands in 1825, mainly show views of Potsdam and its environs. The young princess, far from home, could thus show her guests the beauty of the landscapes in which she had grown up.
