The pattern, whose French name means “a thousand flowers,” scatters delicate bouquets and floral sprays in pink, lavender, violet, blue, and yellow over luminous white porcelain, finished with scalloped edges and fine gold trim. The sculpted branch handles and flower finials on the serving pieces give the set its distinctive, distinguished presence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe maker\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nKrautheim’s origins date to 1884, when Christoph Krautheim established a porcelain-decorating business in Selb, Bavaria; Richard Adelberg joined in 1888, and the firm became part of the distinguished Bavarian porcelain tradition, including service as a supplier to the Royal Bavarian Court. Krautheim opened its own porcelain factory in 1912. The Millefleurs pattern was produced circa 1964–1975 and has long been discontinued — which dates this service roughly 50 to 60 years old. The maker’s backstamp, photographed on the platter in the final images, reads Franconia — K \u0026amp; A Krautheim, Selb Bavaria, Germany, with the Millefleurs pattern name in script, confirming the maker, origin, and pattern.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe complete collection — 53 pieces\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEight five-piece place settings (40 pieces): 8 dinner plates, 8 salad plates, 8 bread and butter plates, 8 footed cups, 8 saucers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e12-inch oval serving platter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e10-inch oval vegetable bowl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e9-inch relish dish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGravy boat with matching underplate (2 pieces)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCreamer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCovered sugar bowl with lid (2 pieces)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTeapot with lid (2 pieces)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLarge covered soup tureen with lid — 10 inches, approximately 7½ inches high (2 pieces)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e8½-inch open serving bowl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nMint condition throughout, as reported by the owner.
