English Jasperware Blue Wedgwood Vases w/ Neoclassical Subjects on Plinths, Pair

About the Item

An exquisite and quite rare pair of 19th century English, Staffordshire, Jasperware blue ground Wedgwood vases with neoclassical subjects on rounded plinths, stylistically attributed to John Flaxman. Each of these vases are in exceptional condition and are of the finest quality of Wedgwood. Each vase is of Amphora form with elongated raised handles with Wedgwood blue ground and white jasperware decoration. The bodies of each vase are decorated with neoclassical Hercules subjects with wreath decoration and small goose-neck protrusions. Above the neoclassical subjects are white jasperware grape-vine wreaths which terminate to hanging ribbons. Flanked on either end are two elongated rounded-top handles with white jasperware acanthus leaf decoration and medusa masks fitted on either side of the top of each handle. The socle of the vase is decorated in acanthus leaves and is resting on a Wedgwood blue ground plinth with exceptionally raised lions masks holding grape vine garlands from either of their mouths. England, circa 1875.

  • Early 19th Century Wedgwood Tricolor Jasperware Jardiniere
    By Wedgwood
    Located in Fort Lauderdale, FL
    A Wedgwood jardiniere with lilac and sage details on a white jasperware ground.
