Royal Worcester Set of 8 Plates Gilbert & Sullivan Operetta Hotel Savoy Theatre Wedding Engagement or Anniversary Gift Musical Enthusiast
This rare and elegant set of eight Royal Worcester porcelain plates celebrates the timeless works of Gilbert & Sullivan, featuring comic opera scenes from four beloved productions. Decorated in a sophisticated combination of teal and olive green on a pristine white background, each plate showcases a character of one of the following operettas:
H.M.S. Pinafore
Iolanthe
The Mikado
The Gondoliers
Two plates of each design are included in the set, making it a delightful display or a meaningful gift for any comic opera enthusiast. These plates are not only visually stunning but also steeped in history: the Savoy Hotel, a luxury London landmark, was funded in part by profits from Gilbert & Sullivan's productions at the neighboring Savoy Theatre, particularly The Mikado. These operettas were instrumental in shaping the modern musical theatre we enjoy today.
Each plate is clearly marked with the green Royal Worcester trademark, as shown in the photos. These are heavy, substantial pieces in very good condition, appearing unused. They make a valuable addition to any collection, whether displayed as decorative wall plates or used for dining.
