FAQs

First Period Worcester porcelain, manufactured between 1751 and 1783 during the Dr Wall period, is known for incorporating soapstone into its soft-paste body, allowing pieces to hold hot liquids without thermal shock.

These items were crafted from soft-paste porcelain containing steatite, decorated with an underglaze blue scale pattern, overglaze polychrome enamels, and mercury gilding.

Authentic pieces generally emit a greenish translucency when held to a light source, exhibit distinct hand-painted scale patterns, and often feature factory marks such as a fretted square or crescent mark under the base.

Display the teacup and saucer inside a glass-fronted cabinet, on a open wall shelf, or on a tabletop easel alongside other historic ceramics to create a curated focal point.

Wash by hand in lukewarm water using a mild soap, avoiding chemical detergents, hot water, or abrasive cloths that can damage the delicate overglaze enamels and gilding.
