Royal Worcester Blush Ivory part teaset

Description

Royal Worcester Blush Ivory part teaset. Item 2223.This very pretty Royal Worcester porcelain Blush Ivory part teaset consists of seven tea cups, seven side plates and five saucers. They are all decorated with Royal Worcester’s pattern W4158 which is a wide variety of hand coloured floral sprays, all enhanced with gilding. The cups are decorated on both sides with a spray of flowers. The Blush Ivory ground has been applied to the faces of the plates and saucers, and to the outside of the cups, where it contrasts nicely with the very white porcelain of the body and the gilded handles. All the pieces feature delicate moulding to the edges. The very finely potted cups measure 82 mm (3.25 inches) in diameter and stand 55 mm (2.25 inches) high. The side plates have a diameter of 170 mm (6.75 inches) and the saucers 135 mm (5.25 inches). All pieces are in good condition with only some slight rubbing of the gilding to the rims, and some slight loss of the Blush Ivory ground to the high points to detract from them. This pattern was introduced in 1893, and these pieces all carry the date mark for that year.
