Learn More About Jasperware

A type of fine-grained, unglazed stoneware introduced by the English potter Josiah Wedgwood in 1775, Jasperware derives its name from the fact that it resembles the natural stone jasper in its hardness.  

Jasper is white in its natural state and is stained with metallic oxide coloring agents. The most common shade is pale blue, but dark blue, lilac, sage green, black, and yellow were also used. 

Decorations, typically Neoclassical in style and usually white, were made in separate molds and applied to the body of the piece. Objects made of jasper were varied and included not only biscuit barrels, but also vases, plaques, cameos, furniture mounts, and portrait medallions.
