Arguably the most celebrated of all English ceramics makers, Wedgwood was founded in 1759 by potter Josiah Wedgwood in Staffordshire, which was then home to hundreds of pottery workshops. The company is famed for its pieces inspired by ancient cameo glass, including Jasperware, molded Neoclassical stoneware vases, plates and other objects. These feature white figures, scenes and decorative elements set in relief on a matte-colored background. Generally, Wedgwood and Wedgewood are both surnames and the names of cities.
