Toddie is one of three adorable candle snuffers based on rare originals modeled by James Hartley in 1880 and last reproduced in 1976. 'Helens's Babies' was a best selling book by John Habbertson, published in 1876, and tells the story of Helen's two boys, Budge and Toddie, cared for by her bachelor brother Harry while she and her Husband went on holiday. In one of their adventures they dressed up in Harry's clothes and this was the inspiration for the snuffers. The third snuffer in the series shows a boy dressed up in a sailor suit, either putting on or removing a large overcoat, and is believed to represent James Hadley's son Howard, showing that they are little boys beneath the adult clothes.
Manufacturing extremely high quality wares, Royal Worcester quickly became synonymous with high end porcelain pieces and successfully produced prestigious items for the upper classes. Throughout its rich history Royal Worcester has had strong associations with art and artists. Often an artist would be employed to decorate the prestigious items Royal Worcester had created. Today the stunning Painted Fruit collection is hand painted by an artist and etched with gold. Following the acquisition of Royal Worcester, the Portmeirion Group is committed to the development of this great British brand building on product ranges old and new
