Fine Dr Wall / First Period Worcester Porcelain Hexagonal Sauce Boat C.1755

18th century
For Sale by The Fancy Fox
Description

A lovely early Worcester porcelain cream jug or small sauce boat, with a hexagonal base and flared sides with fluted shaped rim and generous spout. Beautiful, delicate relief moulded decoration to the walls, and an ornate, double scrolled handle with raised thumb rest. Beautifully painted with floral sprays in lovely, rich enamels. Unmarked, c.1755. 

It measures 10.5cm (4 1/8") spout to handle, 7.4cm (2 7/8") wide and 5.7cm (2 1/4") high.

In very good condition: there has been a professional repair to the handle, this appears to just be a clean repair with the porcelain original and carefully airbrushed in to hide the joins. It displays perfectly. No other issues and minimal handling wear.

FAQs

First Period Worcester porcelain refers to items produced between the factorys establishment by Dr John Wall in 1751 and 1783. This period is defined by the use of steatite (soapstone) in the soft-paste porcelain body, producing durable, thermal shock-resistant wares often decorated with hand-painted overglaze enamels or underglaze blue designs.

18th-century English wares, particularly from the Worcester factory, utilised soft-paste porcelain incorporating soapstone, crushed flint, and clay. Decoration was applied using overglaze metallic oxide enamels fired at lower temperatures to bond with the lead-based glaze.

Authentic pieces often exhibit a characteristic greenish or bluish tint when held up to a strong light source due to the soapstone composition. Molded details, subtle scroll handles, painters marks, or fretted crescent marks on the underside are common physical identifiers of this production era.

Small porcelain items can be styled on a sideboard, inside a glazed cabinet, or atop stacked art books on a mantelpiece. Displaying them alongside contemporary ceramics creates a textured visual contrast in curated living spaces.

Wash soft-paste porcelain by hand in lukewarm water using a mild, non-abrasive soap. Avoid extreme temperature changes, abrasive sponges, and modern dishwashers, which can damage delicate overglaze enamel painting and lead glazes.
