This pair of Victorian dessert plates originates from the Kerr & Binns period of Worcester, dating to the 1850s, and is rendered in the Sevres style. Each circular porcelain plate measures 23.5 cm in diameter and features a glossy turquoise ground border punctuated by gilded scalloped edges, interspersed with intricate gilded cartouches enclosing hand-painted botanical motifs and butterflies. The white central well of each plate displays a vibrant floral spray composed of pink roses painted in fluid enamels, accompanied by green foliage. The reverse bears an iron-red Kerr & Binns Worcester stamp. These decorative plates are suited for display on a sideboard top within an English Country House interior setting, bringing historical English porcelain craftsmanship into a modern dining or living space. They exhibit excellent condition with light stacking wear restricted to the cavetto gilding, and present no damage or restoration.

FAQs

During the mid-19th century, British porcelain manufacturers frequently drew inspiration from 18th-century French Sevres designs, featuring vibrant ground colours such as turquoise or bleu de roi, intricate gilded cartouches, and hand-painted botanical or entomological reserves.

These plates were formed from fine bone china or soft-paste porcelain, fired initially to achieve a vitrified body, and subsequently hand-painted with ceramic enamels before undergoing gilding with leaf or liquid gold fired in a low-temperature kiln.

Authentic Kerr & Binns pieces typically feature impressed or printed factory marks, such as a shield mark with a K&B monogram surmounted by a crown, alongside specific date codes or painter marks applied under or over the glaze.

Antique dessert plates can be mounted using wire wall hangers to create a decorative plate wall, arranged on plate stands upon a console table or sideboard, or incorporated into formal table settings.

Porcelain plates decorated with hand painting and gilded rims should be washed gently by hand in lukewarm water using a mild detergent, avoiding abrasive pads, dishwashers, and prolonged soaking that could degrade the gilding or glaze.
