A very fine & rare Chamberlain Worcester Porcelain Trio decorated in pattern 924 c.1816-20. Of ‘Princess Charlotte Shape’, superbly and finely decorated with a border of Roses and Pansies on a solid gold ground. Both the cup and saucer have a gadrooned edge. The cup has a very graceful handle with an Eagle or Griffin’s head inside the finger grip.
The original Chamberlain Worcester pattern books describes this as 'Princess Charlottes gadroon. Rose & Hearts - ease wreath of gold, rich.' A complete service in this pattern would have been quite expensive at the time at £31 10s. 0d.
It is important to note that on 25 May 1814, Messrs Chamberlain were appointed porcelain manufacturers to Princess Charlotte. This pattern was probably named in celebration of that fact.
Marked with pattern number 924 in red to the saucer. Script mark to base of the saucer.
Condition: Good with just some minor wear to the gilding in a couple of places. Some light crazing to the base of the cup which under shows from underneath. Rings nicely when tapped
