Pair Of Royal Worcester Porcelain Grecian Water Carriers, Dated 1912

A matched pair of Royal Worcester porcelain figures dated 1912, titled “Grecian Water Carriers”. Each barefoot female figure wears a draped robe with raised gilt decoration, balancing a Greek-style urn on her head and cradling a smaller amphora — a motif typical of neoclassical art. The modelling is exceptionally fine, with crisp detailing of the drapery, hands, and facial features — a hallmark of Royal Worcester's high artistic standards during the early 20th century. The figures are finished in the factory’s “blush ivory” style and are probably based on a design by James Hadley, one of Worcester’s principal modellers in the late 19th century.                        Underside bears the printed Royal Worcester mark and the model number 2 over 125. Height: 25 cm Weight (together): 687 grams Condition: Excellent. Minor wear to the gilding on the base. No chips, cracks, or restorations. A well-preserved and finely executed pair.
