FAQs

During the eighteenth century in Britain, pickle dishes were introduced as small, specialized tableware items designed to serve relishes, preserved fruits, and pickles. Often crafted in leaf or shell shapes inspired by nature and Asian ceramic imports, these pieces became popular accessories on dining tables produced by factories such as Worcester, Bow, and Caughley.

First Period Worcester porcelain was crafted from soft-paste porcelain incorporating steatite (soapstone) mined from Cornwall. This mixture allowed the factory to produce durable wares capable of holding hot liquids without cracking, decorated with cobalt oxide for underglaze blue patterns.

Authentic pieces often exhibit a characteristic greenish or bluish tint when held to light due to the presence of soapstone in the paste. Look for underglaze blue makers marks such as the open crescent, shaded crescent, or workmaster marks, along with evidence of precise hand-painting or transfer-printing typical of the era.

These small decorative dishes can be displayed inside a glass cabinet, arranged on a sideboard top alongside silver or glass tableware, or mounted on a wall using specialized plate hangers to create a curated gallery display.

Clean soft-paste porcelain by hand using warm water and a mild dishwashing detergent, avoiding abrasive pads or chemical cleaners. Do not place antique ceramics in modern dishwashers or microwaves, and store them away from direct sunlight and sharp temperature changes.
