Set of 8 Royal Worcester Plates For Ovington Brothers NYC
Antiques : Ceramics, Porcelain : Royal Worcester : Vitreous : Ovington Brothers : Blue And White : Clovers
Pleased to offer this Circa. 1887 set of Royal Worcester plates for Ovington Brothers of NYC. Ovington Brothers was a very high end store specializing in fine imported European porcelain and glass ware. The Ovington Brothers stamp was a sign of the highest quality available. The last of The brothers Theodore and Edward passed away within 2 months of each other in 1909. The store continued on and later shortened it's name to just "Ovington's". Items marked with "Ovington Bros." are pre 1920. The plates have very pretty variegated blue clovers on white. The markings include: the Royal Worcester Vitreous stamp in blue. Ovington Brothers stamp in red, as well as the painters mark in red. There is an incised mark of Y6 which indicates the year 1887, as well as the "Y" stamped under the Royal Worcester mark. The plates measure 8" and are in very good condition. There is some wear to the gold gild trim, and one plate has a very small 1/8" flat chip on the underside, That can't be seen from the top. I believe the condition is very good after 120 plus years. These would be a great addition to a blue and white collection.
