Blue John is one of the most in-demand decorative stones in the world, and its inclusion in this piece elevates the tazza to a true Georgian masterpiece. Due to its popularity, the largest veins of Blue John had disappeared by the early 19th century, and only a small amount of the stone remains today.

Not only does this tazza boast a highly rare material, but it was also designed by one of the most important architects and designers of the Georgian era.
