About the Item

Royal Worcester Ruby Throated Hummingbird by Dorothy Doughty with Custom Crate This exquisite Royal Worcester porcelain sculpture of a Ruby-Throated Hummingbird, created by renowned British sculptor and potter Dorothy Doughty (1892–1962), stands as a testament to her artistry and craftsmanship. Specializing in bird representations, Doughty's collaboration with Royal Worcester produced some of her finest works. This delicate piece, dated 1957 and marked with the black backstamp "W plus 7 dots," stands 9.75 inches high, 4.5 inches wide, and 3.5 inches deep. The Ruby-Throated Hummingbird (Archilochus colubris) is beautifully captured in a lifelike pose, showcasing the intricate details and vibrant colors for which Doughty's sculptures are celebrated. The sculpture remains in remarkable condition, likely preserved by the custom wood shipping crate designed to securely hold and protect it. The piece features numerous other painters' and artists' signatures, reflecting the collaborative effort involved in its creation. Ready to place and enjoy, this sculpture is an exceptional addition to any collection, offering a touch of natural beauty and historical artistry.
