Product Review
Royal Worcester's Evesham Gold is named for a town on the River Avon, not far from the birthplace of William Shakespeare. True to this orchard-rich region of England, the glossy white porcelain trimmed with 22-carat gold displays a variety of dangling ripe fruit still on the twig. Despite its gracious, Old World charm, the pattern was introduced in the 1960s and has been a collector's item in the United States ever since. This set starts off or augments a collection by providing dinner service with four of each of the following: 14-ounce mug, 10-3/8-inch dinner plate, and 8-1/4-inch salad plate. While each dinnerware shape features different fruit, all the pieces of a type are the same; for example, all the salad plates are decorated with two pears, three cherries, and a spray of blackberries. Peaches and plums adorn the dinner plates. Fruit colors are muted, and russet tones in the leaves complement the gold rims. All are made in Portugal, and the mugs are decorated in England. The durable porcelain stands up to everyday use and is safe for the oven, freezer, and dishwasher, although hand-washing to protect the gold trim is recommended. Because of the gold, the dinnerware is not safe for use in the microwave. --Ann Bieri
