Product Description
Vintage Giuseppe Armani Figurine Capodimonte 1983 Italy Excellent Condition No cracks or chips Will make a great gift ! Beware of Armani Fakes - always check the Watermark and Signature ! Capo-di-Monte marks 1772 Capo-di-Monte Ginori mark 1830–1890 Capo-di-Monte Ginori Mark 1896–1925 (approx.) This version of the ‘crown’ mark with the name “Ginori” under the “N” was used by the Ginori factories that supplied their “Capodimonte-Style” porcelain to six retail shops. One of which was in Naples. Richard Ginori-produced pieces used several marks as time passed, but since none of their porcelain was made in Naples, it is only styled after Capodimonte. Like many other porcelain makers, they were capitalizing on the reputation of the “Royal Factory’s” real Capo-di-Monte. Capo-di-Monte IPA marks 1925 – to-date After the Royal Factory closure in 1834, many of the King’s artists and modelers split off to open their own studios. By 1925 there were many Italian porcelain factories making Capodimonte-style porcelains, and using the famous “N” and crown mark. One studio, the Industria Lombardo Porcellane Artistche, (ILPA), founded in 1925 by Signora Carozzi, became dominant. ILPA later grew to become IPA, (Industry of Artistic Porcelain), a very large porcelain company that began using its own mark in 1967. Both alone, and with the “N” Crown and text. Note: References to “Capodimomte by IPA” are references to origins–not designing artists.
