Description

We are selling this beautifully hand painted Royal Worcester cabinet plate depicting peaches and blackberries. It is signed H Price (fruit painter).

Horace Price
Born in 1898 Horace Price started work at the Royal Worcester factory in 1912 and stayed there throughout his working life.

He was a keen and well respected fruit painter that could also turn his hand to flowers in both the general Royal Worcester and the Hadley styles.

He served in the first world war where he lost a finger on his right hand but this made no difference to his life or his work and he was greatly admired by the factory management.

Horace Price later became foreman of all the apprentice painters.

The diameter of the plate measures 9 inches and it is in lovely condition. There is a glazing flaw on the reverse of the plate (see picture)
