- A DRESDEN TWENTY-SEVEN PIECE PARCEL
A DRESDEN TWENTY-SEVEN PIECE PARCEL GILT AND GREEN GROU...A DRESDEN TWENTY-SEVEN PIECE PARCEL GILT AND GREEN GROUND PORCELAIN COFFEE SERVICE, BY RICHARD KLEMM, GERMAN, EARLY 20TH CENTURY, a gift from President and Mrs. Woodrow Wilson to Mr. and Mrs. Jesse H. Jones, a porcelain coffee service for twelve and each piece hand painted in colors with reserves of courting couples in 18th century attire, framed by raised gilt leafy branches within an apple green ground and reversing to an underside with overglaze blue crowned "RK / Dresden / Germany," comprising twelve petal rimmed coffee cups with twelve matching saucers, one tall lidded coffee pitcher, one two handled sugar bowl with lid, and one cream pitcher, the coffee pitcher height: 8 1/2", width: 5 1/2", depth: 3 1/2". Note: This porcelain coffee set was a gift to Mr. & Mrs. Jesse H. Jones from the President and First Lady Woodrow Wilson. It is interesting to note that Mr. Jones returned to Houston in 1919 after having served as Director General of Military Relief for the American Red Cross during World War I (1914-1918). By December of 1920 he married Mary Gibbs, a native of Mexia, Texas. This porcelain set's blue factory marks are from the late 19th century/early 20th century and combined with the painted subject of 18th century style courting couples, as well as being a gift to Mr. and Mrs. Jesse H. Jones (not just Mr. Jones), points to the probability that it was a wedding gift to the newlyweds for their December 1920 nuptials. Provenance: Property from the Jesse H. Jones and Houston Endowment Collection, all proceeds to benefit the Houston Food Bank.
