About the Item

This set of antique Flight Barr Barr Worcester dessert dishes features the elegant "Strawberry" pattern. The decoration shows golden strawberries on a soft peach background. The combination of the peach groun and the lavish gilding is fabulous! The set was hand gilded from a stencil in England during the Regency period around 1820. It includes a total of 18 pieces, comprising: 12 dessert plates 8.25" diameter a standing fruit bowl, a square serving dish, a pair of oval serving dishes, and a pair of saucer dishes. Price: $1,700 All the dishes are marked with an impressed crown over FBB, which indicates that Flight Barr Barr Worcester, the manufacturer, was a purveyor to their Royal Majesties. The Worcester "Strawberry" pattern was highly sought after in the early 19th century and was considered a great alternative to Chinese porcelain, which was a symbol of status during that period. Worcester porcelain was whiter, with brighter colors than Chinese porcelain, and more readily available, becoming the height of fashion for the English nobility.
