<About Jasperware>

Jasperware, or jasper ware, is a type of pottery first developed by Josiah Wedgwood in the 1770s. Usually described as stoneware.

After several years of experiments, Wedgwood began to sell jasperware in the late 1770s, at first as small objects, but from the 1780s adding large vases.

Jasperware has an unglazed matte “biscuit” finish and is produced in a number of different colours often with ancient Roman or Greek motifs.
