The Evesham Gold pattern was introduced by Royal Worcester in 1961, named after a  local plum variety  known as 'Evesham Wonder'.  The design, consisting of a variety of fruits, berries and vegetables, became wildly popular and kept being extended with new servingware pieces added through 1965. Giftware was added in 1967, tableware in 1968 and even cutlery was developed in 1980.  The line was eventually discontinued in 2015 but remains one of the most loved patterns from Royal Worcester.

Royal Worcester can trace its roots back to 1751, on the banks of the Severn River in Worcester England.  Dr. John Wall, got a group of artists together to work on the growing field of ceramics.  By 1789 their reputation of excellence had grown so much that King George III granted a Royal Warrant and Royal was added to the company's name.  Royal Worcester's traditional quality and craftsmanship have survived unchanged through the centuries.  Not only is it luxurious, it is also extremely durable, very different than other English bone chinas, due to the high percentage of calcium phosphate in the bone used. While their patterns will attract and captivate you, the quality will keep you coming back for more pieces to add to your collection.
