Blue and White Worcester Porcelain Fluted Dish 18th Century Circa 1770

$230.00

This 1st Period Worcester porcelain fluted dish, was made circa 1775.
It features a crisp, deep-blue transfer-printed design that combines pinecones, flowers, scrolling vines, and a distinctive persimmon motif.
The transfer has a strong, even blue characteristic of the period’s best production.
The central bouquet is full of movement as its blossoms and leaves extend organically across the fluted surface, that enhances the play of light across the surface.
The scalloped border is framed with floral sprays that echo the richness of the interior pattern.
Worcester’s transfer printing of this period captures remarkable clarity and tonal depth in the blue, giving the piece both visual strength and fine detail.
The dish is a lovely example of the factory’s mature 18th-century blue-and-white production on soft paste porcelain.
Naturalistic elements and rhythmic geometry meet in a harmonious balance.

Background of Early Worcester Porcelain

Worcester’s First Period lasts from 1751 to 1783.
In 1751, Dr John Wall persuaded a group of 13 businessmen to invest in a new factory at Warmstry House, Worcester, England, on the banks of the River Severn.
The early wares were soft-paste porcelain with bodies that contained soaprock, commonly called soapstone in most ceramic circles.
In 1783, Thomas Flight, the concern’s former London sales agent, purchased the factory for £3,000.
The Flight family was involved in the management of Worcester Porcelain until 1840.
