This lidded jar is a masterpiece from Wedgwood, a prestigious British porcelain manufacturer dating back to the 18th century. Featuring a striking star-shaped design, this piece embodies the essence of the Jasperware technique, developed in 1775 by Wedgwood founder Josiah Wedgwood.

The most distinctive feature is the pure white relief decoration that stands out against the deep blue base. A classical mythological motif is intricately depicted in the center of the lid, and the five floral decorations that surround it create an elegant impression. This relief technique is called sprigging, and is a precious technique that is applied by skilled artisans one by one by hand. The contrast between the beautiful matte texture of the base and the three-dimensional white relief is the very essence of Wedgwood's art.

The unique star-shaped design is both practical and allows for smooth opening and closing of the lid. The side of the container is decorated with traditional floral motifs, demonstrating the artisan's uncompromising pursuit of beauty down to the smallest detail. While small enough to fit in the palm of your hand, its presence is exceptional, allowing you to fully appreciate the profound charm of antique ceramics.
