This antique Worcester porcelain dessert set was hand-gilded in England during the Regency period, around 1820.
Created by Flight Barr Worcester, the set features the distinctive “Strawberry” pattern, which showcases golden strawberries and vines against a rare peach background.
The combination of peach and gold creates a luminous effect, beautifully reflecting light with elegance and warmth.
The rich colors, delicate botanical design, brilliant gilding, and lobed edges of several pieces convey the luxury and sophistication that made Worcester porcelain a favored choice among English nobility during the Regency era.
The centerpiece is especially noteworthy.
Worcester’s “Strawberry” pattern was admired as a polished alternative to Chinese porcelain.
Unlike imported porcelain, Worcester offered a whiter body, a brighter color palette, and imaginative designs, solidifying its position at the forefront of fashionable taste in early 19th-century England.

The set comprises:
A large standing centerpiece, 14″ x 10.25″ x 4″ tall
A pair of square serving dishes, 9″ x 9″
A pair of oval serving dishes, 11″ x 8″
A pair of round saucer dishes, 8″ diameter
A single dish with gadrooned gilt edge, 10″ diameter

Marks: Each piece is marked on the underside with an impressed crown over FBB (denoting royal patronage), identifying Flight Barr Barr Worcester as appointed purveyors to their Royal Majesties.
