All of us have sinned and fallen short of reflecting the image and glory of God. We are made right with God solely by His grace, freely given, and stand acquitted before the law, our penalty paid by Jesus Christ. ….God has a right to justify anyone who has placed his faith in Christ.
Romans 3: 23…26 Clear Word Bible.
Tea was expensive so tea pots were really small, carefully designed and the factory imitated the Chinese designs and colours.
Worcester porcelain factory was the first English porcelain factory to use printed decoration on a commercial scale. At the start the print was in black and then colour added by hand.
For the 1878 Paris Exhibition, the factory produced two impressive vases. Looking closely they celebrate the painter and the modeller…
Looking closely it is easy to see the detailed modelling and painting. The molded vases celebrate porcelain’s place in art history, alongside an epic poem entitled The poetry of Pottery. Binns was awarded the Legion d’Honneur following the exhibition.
These are the words you can see through the cabinet glass with such carefully formed works of art.
Richard Sebright is possibly the most highly regarded Worcester fruit painter.
Some quotes with porcelain :
Character like porcelain- ware, must be painted before it is glazed. There can be no change of colour after it is burned in. (I’m not sure I agree with this. I wonder what you think?)
Henry Ward Beecher (1813 – 1887 social reformer and clergyman)
The porcelain rose is not as pretty as the one that decays. (Easy for me to agree with this.)
Eric G. Wilson (1967 American author)
Respect people who trust you. It takes a lot for people to trust you, so treat their trust like precious porcelain. (So very true.)
Brandon Cox ( 1974 American Cinematographer.)
Thank you for thinking about porcelain with me. I hope your weekend is blessed.

Yes, it was special for me too. I have 2 serving dishes which I want my niece to have. They belonged to my Mother in law and were given to me, but I really want her to have them. Glad you enjoyed the post.

Lovely, all. I so enjoy museums. Maybe the quote you’re unsure of relates to how we get set in our ways, and character, as we age?? 🌞

Yes, possibly. I think we can always find a way to change positively in thought and then in effort.

I agree with you, but I think a lot of us have a tendency to become more & more inflexible as we age. 🌞
