Three Wedgwood Blue Jasperware Trinket Dishes
This lot comprises three small Wedgwood trinket dishes in the celebrated blue Jasperware style, each finished in the pale powder blue body and white relief decoration associated with the Staffordshire manufactory. Their neoclassical designs are typical of the range, with one round dish bordered by a laurel wreath and centred with a standing classical figure, a second with a band of applied scrolls and a mythological group, and an oval dish with a scalloped rim and a reclining classical scene framed by sprigs of foliage. Jasperware of this kind was modelled in unglazed stoneware, giving the surfaces a soft, matt finish that contrasts crisply with the raised white figures. The three pieces make an appealing grouping for display on a dressing table, hall stand or cabinet.
Condition and Collector Interest
The dishes present in fair to good visible condition, with no obvious chips, cracks or restoration apparent in the photograph, though they have been handled and show some general surface wear consistent with age. The raised relief remains crisp on all three pieces, which is an important consideration for buyers of Jasperware, as worn or softened decoration can significantly affect value. Please inspect the images carefully and contact us with any questions before bidding. As a set of three matching pieces with classical motifs, these dishes will appeal to collectors of Wedgwood, admirers of neoclassical ceramics and those seeking characterful small decorative items for everyday display.
