Host Your Own Hunger Games With President Snow’s Panem China
Did you watch the scrappy kids running around the Hunger Games and think they looked boring and overfed? Did you wait through the fight scenes for a glimpse of the opulence and intrigue of the Capitol elite? Do you love power, beauty, child-on-child violence, and lethally good dinner parties? This auction might be for you.
Starting today, you can bid on the real porcelain dinner service used by President Snow in Hunger Games: Mockingjay–Part 2.
Each item in the 20 piece dinner set bears the refined gilding, gold leaf and bold Panem insignia you’d expect on the table of the leader of a dictatorial yet taste-conscious hellscape. (As the critical eyes at CF File note, the designers clearly did their presidential dinnerware homework.)
The set is made by non-fictional porcelain manufacturer Maison de la Porcelaine of France, and features four settings of large plates, dinner plates, salad plates, demitasse cups (“for espresso or a strong after dinner drink”) and saucers. Whether that’s an endorsement of real-life murder mystery dinners or not, this set could certainly bring an extra something to your entertaining to help command respect from your peon followers.
The bidding on Invaluable begins at $600. May the odds be ever full of flavor.
