Description
Vintage Wedgwood green Jasperware heart dish. A classical Greek composition of a man with a harnessed Pegasus rests at the centre of the dish, surrounded by ruins and a protective olive tree. The edges are bordered with a garland of symbolic olive leaves.
Jasperware is made up of an unglazed vitreous fine stoneware which could then be stained a variety of colours, providing a suitable background for white bas-reliefs or portraits. This dish is a smooth sage green, with classic motifs and appearance. A wonderful collectible.
