Vintage Royal Worcester Evesham Pie Baker. Measures 10.5". Good condition. Has some rubbing on the gold rim.
This vintage Royal Worcester Evesham pie baker is a beautiful example of the world-renowned "oven-to-table" porcelain that redefined mid-century dining. Measuring approximately 10.5" in diameter, this round baker is part of the Evesham Gold collection, which famously features real 22-carat gold gilding along its scalloped edges. The interior is adorned with vibrant, life-like depictions of autumnal fruits, including succulent plums and pears, which were inspired by the bountiful orchards of the Vale of Evesham in England.
Crafted from highly durable fireproof porcelain, this dish was designed to withstand the heat of the oven while remaining elegant enough to serve as a centerpiece on a formal dining table. It is the perfect size for baking classic fruit pies, quiches, or tarts, and its wide rim provides a beautiful frame for a flaky golden crust. While this piece remains a functional kitchen essential, it is also a highly collectible item for those who appreciate the heritage of British fine china. Please note that to preserve the hand-applied gold trim, hand washing is recommended.
This item is vintage, over 30 years old. While it appears to be in good condition, there is the possibility I may have missed a minor detail. In the unlikely event I missed a major flaw I would reach out prior to sending it.
