FAQs

Flight Period Worcester refers to the era from 1783 to 1792 when Joseph Flight and his brother Thomas took over the Worcester porcelain manufactory, marking a distinct phase in the factorys history characterised by refined bodies and neoclassical or naturalistic hand-painted decoration.

Eighteenth-century Worcester pieces typically used a soft-paste porcelain body, later transitioning to bone china, shaped through throwing or mould pressing, and decorated with hand-painted overglaze enamels and gilding fired in a kiln.

Authentic pieces from this era often feature specific underglaze blue or painted marks such as a crescent, a script Flight mark, or an impressed B, alongside characteristic paste translucency, hand-painted floral motifs, and period-appropriate potting thickness.

Antique porcelain can be integrated into contemporary spaces by displaying individual cabinet pieces on floating shelves, using them as functional small vases on coffee tables, or grouping them within glass-fronted vitrines to create focal points of texture and heritage.

Antique porcelain should be washed by hand using lukewarm water and mild, non-ionic detergent, avoiding ultrasonic cleaners, harsh scrubbers, or dishwashers, and kept away from direct sunlight to preserve delicate enamel colours and gilding.
