FLIGHT & BARR  ROYAL WORCESTER

THISTLE TRIO SET

  c.1795  

Flight Barr Worcester true ‘trio’

  i.e. matching teacup, coffee cup

  and one large saucer.

 

This is what was originally

known as a trio – these

days this term refers to 

a teacup, saucer and

side plate set.

 

Part of a much more extensive

Georgian afternoon tea

and coffee set

(see photos).

 

This listing is for one trio.

 

All three pieces have Wrythen

  fluted moulding

(i.e. twisted ribbed design to body)

 

All pieces are decorated with the

  same glorious cobalt blue bands

with hand applied pure gold leaf

design and the lovely gold thistles

that just gleam in the light.

 

Incised B mark underneath

which dates them to between

  1792 – 1807

 

Very faint ‘B’ underneath each piece

which I have shown in one photo with

  autocorrecting as they are very

  hard to see.

 

This tea and coffee set mainly dates to

the late 1700s or very early 1800s except

  for six identical saucers (listed separately)

that have been added about 100 years later –

  possibly to extend the setting so you could

serve tea and coffee together and they would

  then have enough saucers.

 

I can find no evidence that Royal Worcester

  continued making this pattern into the early

20th century so it is possible the owners

  commissioned Royal Worcester to make

  the six later saucers expressly for them.

 

Regrettably we have to split it all up

to sell as trying to pack so many fragile

  pieces of porcelain to withstand being

sent through the post together would not

only be a nightmare but the cost to the

  purchaser would be exorbitant. 

 

If anyone in Australia is interested

in a large number of pieces or the

  whole set we would be happy to

negotiate a more attractive purchase

  price and help get a good Carrier to

  deliver them when next going to your

area which should be cheaper and

safer than by post.

 

CONDITION

All three pieces are in very

good original antique condition.

 

No chips, cracks, crazing or

restoration.

 

All ping well when tapped.

 

A few faint surface usage marks

to saucer.

 

A little wear to gold gilding on

the high points on the rims mainly

  but really all three are in extremely

  good condition especially for being

200+ years old.

 

Teacup has three dark marks

  in an even triangular configuration

that have to be stilt marks from the

  firing process as all but two of the

teacups have them to some degree.

 

They must have fired the cups upside

down on a three pronged kiln stilt

(support system) so they didn’t

  collapse in the kiln.

 

You often see stilt marks underneath

a plate or something large like that.

This is the first time I have come

across them inside a cup but this

is what they must be.

 

Tiniest amount of kiln grit inside

teacup and almost nothing

in the coffee cup - see photos.

 

Kiln grit is a common occurrence

in this English soft-paste porcelain

  and pottery production in general

at this time.

 

  Most of the teacups and some of the

other pieces in this set have it

to some degree.

 

Any little brown dots and/or

unevenness to the foot rim

of any piece is all original

and how this soft-past

porcelain comes out of the kiln.

Saucer measures approximately:  

14.5cm (5 3/4") wide &

3.2cm (1 1/4") high
