This traditional English fine china coffee pot originates from the 1940s and takes the form of a pedestal vessel crafted from bone china with a gold leaf finish. The body wears a hand-painted motif depicting plump peaches and clustered grapes, accompanied by a gilded handle, spout, pedestal foot, and a matching lid finial. A smooth, glossy glaze coats the surface, capturing vibrant shades of purple, yellow, orange, and green across the fruit decoration, contrasted by the polished golden trim. Measuring 21 cm high, 20 cm wide, and 10 cm deep, the piece sits neatly upon a sideboard top within an English country house setting. Its domestic placement suits a dining room or drawing room surface where traditional tableware is displayed or served from during afternoon gatherings.

FAQs

Royal Worcester painted fruit porcelain refers to fine bone china decorated with detailed, hand-painted still-life scenes of fruit, a tradition popularized by master artists at the Worcester factory from the late 19th century onwards.

These pieces are crafted from fine bone china or porcelain, fired at high temperatures, decorated with ceramic enamels, and highlighted with burnished 22-carat gold gilding.

Authentic items generally feature a printed Royal Worcester factory mark on the base, along with artist signatures positioned near the fruit design and raised, polished gold details.

Position the piece inside a glass display cabinet, on a sideboard, or atop a mantelpiece where natural light highlights the gilding and detailed artwork.

Clean gently using warm water and mild soap with a soft microfibre cloth, avoiding abrasive sponges, dishwasher washing, or chemical cleaners that can wear away the gold gilding.
