Josiah Wedgwood was instrumental in making English pottery a leader on the world stage - growing it from a cottage craft in the 1700's, to an international industry. One of his greatest inventions was Jasperware, first developed in the 1770s. The smooth, hard stoneware, fashioned in a neoclassical style, rivalled Chinese porcelain in its allure and was snapped up by Georgian consumers, ensuring Wedgwood became a household name.

Still produced by the company today, it remains as recognisable, and collectable, as it was 200 years ago. Jasperware has an unglazed matte "biscuit" finish and is produced in a number of different colours, of which the most common and best known is a pale blue that has become known as Wedgwood Blue.

This wee plate was manufactured in the 1960’s and originally belonged to my grandmother, Elsie Jean Stevenson.
