The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

During the 1930s, Royal Worcester expanded its production of decorative nursery and seasonal figurines, commissioning sculptors such as Freda Doughty to design models representing childhood, months, and seasons. These pieces reflected a shift toward softer, naturalistic subjects painted with pastel underglaze colours.

These figurines were cast from fine bone china clay using multi-piece plaster moulds to capture intricate details. After an initial firing, the pieces were hand-painted with ceramic glazes and re-fired at high temperatures to vitrify the china and fix the pigments.

Authentic pieces feature the printed Royal Worcester factory stamp on the base, typically accompanied by a registration number, model number, and a system of dots or date codes underneath the emblem to identify the exact year of manufacture.

Incorporate these pieces into modern spaces by displaying them inside a glass-fronted cabinet, arrangement on a mantelpiece, or alongside books on open shelving to add texture and historical interest without cluttering the room.

Dust regularly using a soft, dry lint-free cloth or a delicate brush to clear hard-to-reach crevices. Avoid washing with abrasive detergents or submersing pieces in hot water, as sudden temperature shifts can crack the glaze.
