In 1817, Louis-Philippe d'ORLEANS asked Jean-Baptiste-Claude ODIOT, the Emperor's goldsmith still active during the Restoration and particularly esteemed by the Bourbons, to affix the Orléans coat of arms to the famous PENTHIEVRE-ORLEANS service. He also commissioned new pieces to complete the set. For a similar set of 12 plates, see : Furniture and Works of Art Sale - Artcurial December 17, 2024 Lot 126.
