Royal Worcester Figure, Seated Classical Maiden with Dove, 1880

19th century
Description

Description: A rare Royal Worcester porcelain figure, impressed with R for 1880, depicting a seated classical maiden in a draped brown robe with scattered gilded details. A gilt dove perches gently on her shoulder, and she holds a small stylised flower with an amber-toned centre in her right hand. This model exemplifies Worcester's exceptional attention to detail: from the carefully defined folds of the robe to the precise modelling of hands and facial features. The gilding is in remarkable condition, including the dove — which is typically worn in comparable examples.

Dimensions: height 21.8 cm, width 8.5 cm, depth 11.5 cm Weight: 500 g

Condition: Excellent. No damage or restoration. A rare and well-preserved figure.

Please study the accompanying photographs carefully as they form an integral part of this description. If you have any questions, we will be happy to answer them. The item will be shipped with full tracking and insurance. It is important to note that shipping costs include labour, packaging and postage.

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.
Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
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.

Victorian Royal Worcester figurines from the late 19th century often feature classical or allegorical subjects styled with fine drapery, soft matt glazes, and detailed hand-applied gilding.

These figures were crafted from fine white porcelain, decorated with ceramic enamels, and highlighted with liquid gold or burnished gold leaf before final firing.

Authentic pieces display printed or impressed Royal Worcester factory marks on the underside, often accompanied by letter or dot date codes indicating the precise year of manufacture.

Small porcelain sculptures serve as decorative accents when placed on a mantelpiece, styled within a glazed cabinet, or displayed on a bookshelf alongside art volumes.

Clean gently using a dry, soft-bristled brush or microfibre cloth. Avoid water submersion, abrasive powders, and chemical cleaners, as these can wear away the surface gilding and enamel over time.
