How do I identify Royal Worcester?
1 Answer

To identify Royal Worcester, look on the bottom of any pieces for maker's stamps. These varied over the years, but nearly all the markings clearly say "Royal Worcester." Many pieces also feature a code or symbol that is useful when dating Royal Worcester porcelain. For example, an item produced in 1875 will showcase the letter "E," while those crafted in 1932 feature three circles along with “Made in England” text. The Museum of Royal Worcester has an in-depth reference guide that you can use to assess your marks and determine which pattern your piece features. If you need additional assistance, use the services of a certified appraiser or knowledgeable antique dealer. Shop a collection of Royal Worcester porcelain on 1stDibs.
