: I am searching for any info on a set of 12 Flora Danica Dessert Fruit Motif Plates each with a different fruit. They were long since retired but re-introduced in about 1995 by Royal Copenhagen, reportedly at the request of Neiman Marcus. Supposedly only 12 sets were produced. Hi, I'm not sure but I think I may have this set of fruit plates/dessert set. These are Autumn fruits, meaning really 'the fruits of Autumn'. The largest bowl is 32cms across and carries a painting (each picture is hand painted) of a black birdsitting on a black berry branch with blackberries ans leaves. The second,20.5cms across is of acorns fruit and it's leaves. Third a chestnot in it's casing with it's leaves,fourth.Dark sloes with it's spicky foliage.fifth.Rose hips with leaves six and seven I don't know these fruits but they are painted in the same style. I can send you photo's if you would like. I don't know anything about them appart from the fact that they are Royal Copenhagen and really beautiful.
