This Victorian porcelain soup dish originates from circa 1890, produced by Royal Worcester for the retailer Phillips of London. The round piece is manufactured from cream-coloured ceramic finished with a glossy glaze, accented by heavy polychrome enamel painting and gleaming gold leaf gilding. Hand-painted botanical floral sprays, insects including butterflies and bees, and intricate gilt rococo scrolls fill the central well and surrounding panels, set against a deep rich red background. The scalloped rim incorporates an elaborate raised rope-twist moulding with detailed gilding along the fluted edge. Measuring 25.5 cm in diameter and 3.5 cm in height, the shallow bowl is suitable for display on a sideboard top or within a dining room cabinet in a traditional interior setting.

FAQs

Late Victorian porcelain often incorporates elements of Rococo Revival and Aesthetic Movement styles, characterised by rich gilding, complex cartouches, hand-painted floral motifs, and asymmetrical natural details such as insects or birds.

English manufacturers predominantly used bone china, composed of bone ash, feldspathic material, and kaolin, decorated with hand-applied enamel glazes and gilding containing genuine gold leaf.

Authentic pieces feature factory printed or impressed marks on the underside, often accompanied by a system of dots or letters indicating the exact year of manufacture, as well as retailer stamps.

Such pieces can be displayed upright on a wooden or brass plate stand within a glazed cabinet, mounted on a wall arrangement, or placed centrally on a sideboard top alongside contemporary glass items.

Clean gently by hand using warm water and a mild detergent, avoiding dishwashers, abrasive sponges, and prolonged soaking, as these can strip overglaze gilding and hand-painted enamels.
