19th Century early example of Worcester porcelain flower holder in the Japanese style, circa 1879.
Inspired by the Japanese style, Worcester craftsmen adapted designs, rather than directly copying them, for the English market.
In the 1860s, after 100 years of isolation, the Japanese started to trade again with Europe. In 1872 His Excellency Sionii Tomomi Iwakura, Junior Prime Minister of Japan, visited Royal Worcester and saw Japanese-style wares being made for display in Vienna the following year.
