| 📜 Description | Fine Porcelain armorial style, featuring the Hickes Arms crest prominently displayed at the rim. The shield is richly painted in red with gilt detailing and flanked by stylized scrollwork, topped with a stag crest. The cavetto is encircled by an elegant gilt chain border, while the center features a delicate hand-painted floral sprig in polychrome enamels. The shaped rim is highlighted with a continuous gilt edge, typical of refined 19th Century European porcelain. This piece reflects the popular revival and reinterpretation of earlier Chinese Export Armorial Porcelain, produced for the European market during the Victorian period. Collector’s Notes: Armorial wares such as this reference historic family crests like the Hickes arms. During the 19th Century, European factories often produced decorative pieces inspired by earlier Chinese export porcelain, making them collectible in their own right. The combination of gilt decoration and heraldic imagery adds both decorative and historical appeal. |
