Named after the Roman citizen-soldier Cincinnatus and counting George Washington as its first President General, the Society was established to preserve the ideals of those who fought for American independence—passing membership down through hereditary descent to this day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThe Society's iconic eagle insignia became one of the most celebrated emblems of the early republic, widely depicted in the decorative arts of the Federal period. Porcelain bearing the Society's imagery, from original Chinese export services of the 1780s to later reproductions honoring that tradition, remains among the most distinguished and sought-after categories in American collecting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eConnection to the Collection\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eOur collection includes a remarkable 302-piece Society of the Cincinnati dinner and tea service from George Washington's own tableware, and it is from these very pieces that Mottahedeh drew inspiration to create their celebrated reproductions—making each one a direct link to Washington's table.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eMuseum Object No. \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e1963.0700.069\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Mottahedeh","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45628360851655,"sku":"W1103","price":154.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0711\/6872\/1095\/files\/SOC_Leaf_Tray_primary.jpg?v=1775745531","url":"https:\/\/winterthurstore.com\/products\/cincinnati-leaf-tray","provider":"Winterthur Museum Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
