Rare Royal Worcester Pair “renaissance Musicians”, Exclusive Shot Enamel, 1911

Exceptional shot enamel finish in bronze-green and rose-gold tones, used only for exhibition or export pieces. The male figure is known as “Blind Whistler”. These figures are outstanding examples of late Edwardian artistry, with delicate gilding, expressive faces, and naturalistic movement. The technique of shot enamel gives the surface a soft iridescence, prized by Worcester collectors. Rarely encountered as an original matched pair in this excellent preservation.
