This Royal Worcester bone china bon bon dish dates from the 1940 period in an Edwardian style. The circular dish has a multicolour hand-painted fruit motif featuring peaches and green grapes, a scalloped gilded edge, an artist signature reading A Shuck, and a smooth glossy glaze. The background colours include soft green, brown, and warm peach tones, with a tiny single purple fruit painted near the base inside the scalloped rim. Measuring 9.5 cm high, 9.5 cm wide, and 2.5 cm deep, this small decorative dish sits on a sideboard top in an English country house interior to hold small trinkets or simply display the hand-painted artistry.

FAQs

Royal Worcester began producing hand-painted fruit study porcelain in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, establishing a tradition of master artists signing their individual works. These items were highly prized for their botanical accuracy and complex still-life compositions set against soft, blended backgrounds.

These pieces were crafted from fine bone china, glazed, and painted by hand using ceramic enamels applied in multiple layers. Each layer required separate firing to build depth of colour, finished with hand-applied burnished gilding along the borders.

Authentic pieces feature standard factory printed backmarks indicating the date of manufacture, along with the painted signature of the accredited artist near the artwork. The decoration is entirely hand-rendered rather than transfer-printed, showing subtle brushwork and depth under magnification.

Small porcelain dishes function well as decorative accents when displayed on a sideboard, within a glass display cabinet, or used as catch-all trays on a coffee table or bedside stand.

Clean gently using a soft, dry cloth or lukewarm water with mild detergent. Avoid abrasive sponges, harsh chemical cleaners, and immersion in water, as these can strip or wear away the hand-applied gold leaf over time.
