Powick Harvest

Powick Harvest - Number One of an Edition of 10.

As a Royal Worcester trained artist the painting of still life fruits will run through Steve's blood forever from his time as an apprentice. Always a staple in the Royal Worcester catalogue and still in production, 'fruits' probably reached their peak of excellence during the 1920's. Many artists have introduced their own styles and interpretations to this subject over the years, both within and without the Worcester brand. One famous painter from that time was Edward 'Ted' Townsend. He started at the Royal Worcester factory in 1918 and stayed there until he finally retired in 1971, having become foreman of the painters in 1954. It was under his tutelage that Steve learned to paint china in a freehand style during an apprenticeship lasting several years. Steve wanted to reconnect with his roots and demonstrate that he had still not lost his touch. He designed this box to mark the start of his new life as a self-employed china painter - it neatly links his past with his future plans. Consequently, the piece is named after the Worcestershire village where he lives and works, in the heart of England's fruit growing region. And what a cracker it has turned out to be! We currently have Number One in the Edition - surely a fantastic investment as well as a beautiful hand-painted classic.

Number One in the Edition of Ten is still available.
