Plate c. 1780

This blue and white jasperware plate, produced by the Wedgwood Manufactory circa 1780, features an intricate design of white floral motifs against a deep blue background. The central medallion showcases a heraldic lion, a symbol often used in Wedgwood's designs to represent strength and power. This plate, a testament to the artistry of the Wedgwood Manufactory, exemplifies the Neoclassical style popular in the late 18th century.
