History of Wedgwood Jasperware

Founded in 1759 by Josiah Wedgwood, the Wedgwood company became one of the most celebrated makers of fine ceramics in the world. Jasperware, introduced in 1774, is one of its most famous innovations—a highly refined unglazed stoneware available in various colors, with cobalt blue being the most sought-after.

Wedgwood's bas-relief white appliqués, often depicting Greek and Roman mythology, are created using a specialized molding technique that requires precise hand application before the piece is fired at high temperatures. The result is a delicate, matte-finished masterpiece, perfect for display or functional use.
