This small, round, jasperware button, crafted by the Wedgwood Manufactory in the late 18th century, showcases a figure in white against a blue background, likely a mythological or historical figure. The button's silver and copper rim is ornamented with a series of raised dots, creating a visually appealing and intricate design. These buttons, often used as adornments for clothing or accessories, are examples of Wedgwood's mastery in ceramics and their use in decorative arts. This particular button, currently housed in the Art Institute of Chicago, demonstrates the skill and attention to detail that characterized the Wedgwood Manufactory during this period.
