Lobed, after a silver model, decorated in blue enamel and gold around the rim, central motif of the Coat of Arms of the Swedish Noble family Wachtmeister. Diameter 24.5 cm.
Wear, damages.
From a dinner service commissioned by Claes Adam Wachtmeister (1755-1828), the dinner service is listed in his estate inventory of 1828 as being in his appartment in Stockholm, thence by descent within the family up until now.
The decoration that surrounds the coat of arms is the order of the sword, it helps us date the service to some where between 1794 when recieves the title of Commandor of the large cross of the Order of the Sword. And before he recieves the Order of the Seraphim.
