Hot Water Pitcher c. 1800

This "Hot Water Pitcher" was created by the Wedgwood Manufactory around 1800. The pitcher is decorated with a neoclassical scene in white relief, depicting figures against a lavender background. It features a checkered pattern in blue, green, and white with a distinctive floral design. This example of 18th-century English ceramics exemplifies the Wedgwood Manufactory's innovative approach to incorporating classical themes and motifs into everyday objects.
