Royal Worcester Porcelain Saucer Appraisal
Category: Collectibles - Tableware - English Porcelain
Description
A piece of English porcelain, appearing to be a saucer, manufactured by Royal Worcester. The underside displays a puce/pink printed backstamp featuring a crown above a circle containing the company monogram (likely a 'W') and the number '51' (referencing the founding year 1751), with "ROYAL WORCESTER" inscribed around the top of the circle and "ENGLAND" around the bottom.
Appraisal Report
The item is identified as a standard piece of Royal Worcester porcelain, most likely a saucer, based on its characteristic backstamp. This type of mark, featuring a crown, the company name, 'ENGLAND,' and a central monogram with '51', was commonly used throughout the 20th century. The valuation of $5-$15 is for a single saucer from a common pattern, assuming it is in good condition with no significant damage like chips, cracks, or major wear. Royal Worcester produced a vast range of tableware, and individual pieces from widely produced sets generally have modest collectible value. If this saucer belongs to a particularly rare, early, or artist-signed pattern, its value could be higher. However, based on the visible information, it is treated as a typical 20th-century production piece. More precise dating and valuation would require inspecting the pattern on the obverse side and any additional date code symbols that may be present on the backstamp but are not clearly discernible in the provided image.
