Worcester Japanese porcelain at the Vienna Exhibition, 1873. 'The English china court was a department of special attraction. Among those manufactories of repute which have contributed to uphold our national reputation a prominent place belongs to the Royal Porcelain Works of Worcester...public taste...has long been directed to the peculiar treatment of ornamental design in Satsuma and Japanese manufacture. The Worcester Works have taken advantage of this taste to design...a large collection of ceramic art-work, which has gained the attention of illustrious visitors, art-connoisseurs, and the public by its unique style and the perfect taste and refinement in which its design is treated...Mr. R. W. Burns, the art-director, and a proprietor of the Worcester Works, has designed and produced all these articles; and he has been ably seconded by his chief modeller, artist, and chemist, Messrs. Hadley, Callowhill, and Bejot, to whom have been awarded medals by the jurors of the Vienna Exhibition; while to Mr. Burns and the Worcester Works a diploma of honour has been awarded. In the Illustration are shown objects selected by the Emperor of Germany, the Archduke Charles of Austria, the Count de Chambord, the Earl of Dudley, and Sir Richard Wallace'.
