Fairyland Lustre Plaque 'Picnic' by River, Wedgwood, circa 1925
By Daisy Makeig-Jones, Wedgwood
Located in Melbourne, Victoria
Daisy Makeig Jones’ description relates this to Völuspá, a poem from the Poetic Edda, which is a collection of Old Norse poems. In Völuspá, it is said that the dwarves were created by the god Loki and the giantess Angrboda, and that they were condemned to live underground. The Light Elves are also mentioned in the poem as being allowed to live in the realm of Alfheim, which is a place of beauty and light.

Trophy Plate, Wedgwood, circa 1900
By Wedgwood
Located in Melbourne, Victoria
Trophy plates were a particularly Victorian development at Wedgwood, taking the use of classical ornament to its absolute limit. Over 2,000 individual sprigs were made, applied, and undercut to produce this plate. Only the best decorators made these, beginning with Thomas Lovatt in the late 19th century - this is an example of his work.
The central relief depicts Bellerophon with Pegasus. Bellerophon was a noble hero of Corinth, known for his strength and bravery. He was the son of Glaucus and the grandson of Sisyphus, though some myths suggest he was actually the son of Poseidon. Bellerophon was a skilled warrior and sought to accomplish great deeds.
Pegasus was a magnificent, winged horse born from the blood of the Gorgon Medusa...
