About the Item
A pair of plant pots covered in marbled brown glaze emulating agate gemstone encircled with checkered rims accented in gold, made circa 1770 by Wedgwood & Bentley in Staffordshire, England.
Emulating the mesmerizing marbled surface of a precious gemstone, these Wedgwood agate ware plant pots expertly mimic a precious material on a quotidian object. The pots were made during the Wedgwood & Bentley period of the factory and, underneath the agate slip, feature a delicate creamware body, the material for which the company became famous.
Dimensions: 3 3/8 in. H x 4 3/8 in. Dm
Condition: Excellent. One pot with some hairline cracks on base around drainage hole. Traces of original gilding around checkered rims.

Six Wedgwood Majolica Argenta 'Lincoln' Pattern Dessert Dishes
By Wedgwood
Located in Fort Lauderdale, FL
Six Wedgwood majolica Argenta palette ‘Lincoln' pattern dessert plates with finely molded maroon prunus blossoms and dark taupe pine branches surrounded by a yellow Greek key border. The dishes are decorated in the japonisme style and feature the “Three Friends of Winter” motif, an Asian artistic convention showing the pine, plum, and bamboo together to represent steadfastness, perseverance, and resilience.
The Wedgwood factory introduced muted Argenta glazes to its majolicas in the 1880s to keep up with ever-changing fashions. The Argenta glaze color palette was more subdued than that of traditionally vibrant majolica, and was thus more appealing to the Aesthetic Movement japonisme style that pervaded the market. These Argenta majolica dessert dishes...
