Perhaps due to her Italian origins, Queen Maria Pia of Savoy had a true passion for glass. Throughout her 48 years in Portugal, between 1862 and 1910, the Queen was an avid collector of a variety of decorative and utilitarian objects, lighting equipment, mirrors, drinking glass and dressing table sets from all the main and most renowned European glass makers. An assiduous traveller in the context of her time, Queen Maria Pia undertook numerous European trips, having visited, often more than once, such cities as Madrid, Paris, Nice, Vienna, London, Carlsbad, Turin \u2013 her birthplace, Rome, Venice and Murano. Researching her diaries, note books and personal records, as well as those from her accompanying ladies-in-waiting, extant purchase receipts and specialised catalogues, it is possible to find many references to the most fashionable and prestigious European department stores and glassmaker\u2019s showrooms such as A La Paix, Grand D\u00e9pot, Au Bon March\u00e9, Baccarat, Moser, J&L Lobmeyr, Compagnia di Venezia e Murano and Salviati & Co., which she visited in her travels and from which she acquired numerous glass objects. In addition to personal visits, the Queen had specialised illustrated catalogues sent to her in Lisbon, from which she could order her chosen pieces.<br \/>\r\nThe personal interest for interior decoration and a sophisticated taste for the applied arts, which include the arts of the table, were undoubtedly related to the Queen\u2019s character. It is evident that her taste evolved, and that her refined, precise and contemporary awareness weighed on her preferences for the best and most fashionable pieces in the market. From vast table sets, emblematic of luxury living in private or state occasions, to dressing table sets, drinking verres d\u2019eau or liqueur, refreshment or bedroom sets, the Queen\u2019s purchases were enriched by specific ownership or heraldic motifs, such as individual monograms - \u201cMP\u201d, \u201cLI\u201d, \u201cLM\u201d or \u201cLMP\u201d, often interlinked and surmounted by the Royal Crown, the Portuguese Royal Shield or the combined armorial shield for the Braganza-Savoy alliance. In this instance, the important drinking glass set that we are bringing to sale, features the Queen\u2019s interlaced monogram \u201cMP\u201d surmounted by an elegant Royal Crown. The purchase invoice for this service is kept at Ajuda National palace archive, where it\u2019s described as \u201cService Cristal torses et rinceaux riches\u201d. This invoice issued by the Grand D\u00e9p\u00f4t on March 19, 1902 allows us to consider that this service may have been acquired during the Queen's stay in Paris in the year of 1901. In the collection of the Ajuda National palace there are 16 pieces of this service. VERITAS Art auctioneers would like to thank Dr. Maria Jo\u00e3o Burnay, curator of the Glass Collection at Ajuda National palace, for her availability to help us studying this service.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nTiago Franco Rodrigues<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nLiterature: AA.VV. \u2013 \u201cA royal lunch.
