Wedgwood Jasperware in green is a less common, but equally beautiful, variation of the iconic Wedgwood Jasperware.
Jasperware Basics:
As with all Jasperware, the green pieces are unglazed stoneware with a matte, "biscuit" finish. The key characteristic is the application of white (or sometimes other colours) raised cameo reliefs onto the coloured background.
Green Hue:
The green shade in Wedgwood Jasperware can vary, ranging from a soft, sage-like green to a deeper, more vibrant emerald. This colour variation makes green Jasperware particularly appealing to collectors seeking something different from the classic blue.
Rarity and Collectability:
Green Jasperware is generally considered less common than the traditional blue, making it more sought after by collectors. This rarity can increase the value of green Jasperware pieces, especially those in excellent condition.
Cameo Motifs:
Like its blue counterpart, green Jasperware features the signature white cameo reliefs, depicting classical figures, mythological scenes, floral patterns, and other intricate designs. The white on green creates a very striking contrast.
Variety of Items:
Wedgwood produced a range of green Jasperware items, including:
Vases
Bowls
Jars
Decorative plaques
Jewellery.
Aesthetic Appeal:
The green colour adds a natural, organic feel to the classic Jasperware design, making it a versatile addition to various interior styles. The green also gives the items a very natural, and calming look.
Historical Context:
Like all jasperware, these items hold historical value, because of the long history of the Wedgwood company.
In essence, Wedgwood Jasperware in green offers a unique and collectible variation of the classic Jasperware style, combining the iconic cameo designs with a less common, but equally appealing, green hue.
