Worcester porcelain

Japanese: ウースター磁器 - ウースターじき(英語表記)Worcester porcelain
Worcester porcelain
This soft-paste porcelain has been produced since 1748 at the Worcester kiln in the west of England. Benjamin Lund opened a kiln in Bristol in 1748, and moved to Worcester in 1852, becoming the Royal Worcester Porcelain Company in 1862. Many of the pieces were oriental, with Imari-style plum blossoms, chrysanthemums, fish, etc., or Meissen-style flowers and birds, but from the late 18th century to the early 19th century, a wide variety of Rococo-style porcelain was produced.
