Description

A highly decorative and historically significant dessert plate from the Kerr & Binns period, showcasing the firm’s exceptional artistry. The finely hand-painted central landscape depicts charming pastoral view of Dargan Castle and its surrounding grounds, believed to be the birthplace of the Duke of Wellington.

The plate’s ornate pierced rim is richly gilded and beautifully painted with garlands of flowers and elegant birds in flight, perfectly encapsulating the Rococo Revival spirit of mid-19th century porcelain.

Marked by Kerr & Sons of Dublin (representative of the Kerr and Binns Worcester in 1852-62) and handwritten title to reverse, this piece is an excellent example of top-tier Worcester porcelain during the firm’s golden years (1852–62).

Diameter: 25 cm (9.75 in)

Condition: Excellent with minor clean glaze crazing, no damage or repairs.

Date of Manufacture

Touch of Time Antiques has dated this Worcester Porcelain Dessert Plate to the 1850s.

FAQs

Victorian Worcester porcelain refers to ceramic wares manufactured in Worcester, England, during the 19th century, known for artistic innovation and fine craftsmanship under various partnerships, including Kerr and Binns.

These items are typically crafted from fine bone china or porcelain paste, finished with hand-painted polychrome enamel details and rich gilding applied through traditional firing techniques.

Authentic pieces often feature manufacturer backstamps, hand-painted pattern numbers, distinctive paste characteristics, and subtle signs of age such as minor gilt wear or crazing within the glaze.

Antique plates can be displayed using specialized wall hangers to create a curated gallery wall or mounted on decorative stands placed on surfaces like cabinets and sideboards.

Antique porcelain should be hand-washed gently in lukewarm water using mild detergent when necessary, avoiding abrasive materials, dishwashers, and prolonged exposure to direct sunlight.
