Flora Danica is considered the most
distinguished and costly dinner service in the world.  From the finest
preparation of the raw porcelain mass to the painting of the edges by the gold
decorator with 24 carat gold, the creation of this service is truly a feat of
craftsmanship. 
While the porcelain is still soft,
the edges and perforations are cut out by hand.  Then the delicate flower
decorations on the lids and handles are shaped, leaf-by-leaf, and
stalk-by-stalk.  The illustrations are then copied from the original
copperplate prints found in the botanical work.  Flora Danica, where the
porcelain painters choose their motifs from among 700 different plates. 
The flowers are painted with great care, and each colour must be fired before
the next colour can be added.
The sumptuous, life-like decorations and the
age-old traditions behind its creation, make Flora Danica truly a unique
experience for the lovers of fine porcelain everywhere.
