Royal Worcester Porcelain Figure – Cherub with Basket

19th century
Description

A beautifully crafted Royal Worcester porcelain figurine depicting a cherub carrying a large basket on its back. The figure is rendered with exquisite attention to detail, showcasing the soft modelling and delicate hand-painting characteristic of Royal Worcester’s fine porcelain.

The cherub features finely detailed golden curls and a gentle, downcast expression, balanced gracefully as it supports a basket designed in a realistic woven style with gilded rope accents. The figure stands on a naturalistic mound base, enriched with earthy tones and finished with a gilt-edged circular plinth.

The underside bears the Royal Worcester puce factory mark.

An elegant and charming example of Royal Worcester’s artistry, this figure demonstrates the brand’s mastery in combining classical themes with Victorian decorative refinement — a perfect addition for collectors of antique English porcelain.

FAQs

Royal Worcester, established in 1751 in Worcester, England, became renowned for producing high-quality porcelain sculptures and ornamental wares during the 18th and 19th centuries, frequently featuring classical themes such as cherubs, putti, and allegorical subjects.

Victorian porcelain figures were typically slip-cast from fine bone china or soft-paste porcelain, hand-painted with ceramic enamels, and highlighted with liquid gold or leaf gilding before undergoing multiple firings in a kiln.

Authentic Royal Worcester pieces feature a printed or impressed factory mark, often including a circle with the number 51 at the centre, surrounded by a crescent or crown, alongside date codes that specify the exact year of manufacture.

Antique porcelain figurines can be styled on a mantelpiece, placed within a glass display cabinet, or arranged alongside books on a shelf to add historic texture and contrast within modern decor schemes.

Clean delicate porcelain figures using a dry, soft-bristled brush or microfibre cloth to remove dust, avoiding harsh chemical cleaners, water immersion, or abrasive scrubbing that could strip surface gilding.
