Maddock & Sons “Majestic” Oval Dish – Royal Vitreous China, England

About the Item

This enchanting oval dish from Maddock & Sons features a joyful explosion of florals framed by a dramatic palette of crimson, navy, and emerald. Its pronounced baroque flair and symmetrical floral patterning make it a showstopper for tablescapes or display. Produced by one of Staffordshire’s respected potteries, this piece is made of Royal Vitreous China — a premium, semi-porcelain material known for its delicate appearance and surprising strength. The “Majestic” pattern, with its rich detailing and lavish palette, is increasingly rare and collectible. It’s a dish that feels like a miniature garden party — lush blooms and ornate scrolls seem to bloom from the surface. In hand, it has a weighty, luxurious feel and a glossy glaze that catches light beautifully. Maddock & Sons operated in Burslem, England, a town at the heart of Britain's pottery industry. Their "Royal Vitreous" line was produced from the late 19th to early 20th century and marketed as a refined yet resilient tableware option — fit for both everyday elegance and formal occasions. Made from Royal Vitreous semi-porcelain, this piece reflects the opulence of Victorian and Edwardian taste. The florals and fluted handles echo the aesthetic of high English revival design, pairing perfectly with eclectic, vintage-inspired interiors.
