Vista Alegre is a Portuguese porcelain manufacturer located in Ílhavo in the district of Aveiro, Portugal.
Influenced by the success of the Marinha Grande glass factory, Pinto Basto decided to create a porcelain, glass and chemical processes factory. He started, in 1815, by acquiring the mansion Quinta da Ermida, a beautiful place near Ílhavo town and by the Aveiro estuary, in a region rich in the essential manufacturing elements of porcelain and glass, such as fuels, clay, white and thin sands and crystallized pebbles. The patent authorising the operation of the Vista Alegre Factory was granted in 1824 by King D. João VI, just five years later, Vista Alegre was granted the title of Royal Factory, to honor its art and industrial success.
By May 2001, Grupo Vista Alegre joined with the Atlantis group and created the largest national tableware Group and the sixth in the world in this speciality: the Grupo Vista Alegre Atlantis.
Condition: Excellent, as new, the decoration throughout the trinket bowl and lid is in very good condition.
