Jasperware Is One Of Wedgwood’S Crowning Achievements And Is Highly Acclaimed For Revolutionizing Ceramic Art. Crafted With An Unglazed Matte “Biscuit” Finish, Jasperware Techniques Were Introduced To The Public In 1775. After Perfecting His Jasperware Technique, Wedgwood Opted To Adorn Its Surfaces With Stark-White Reliefs, Giving Pieces What We Know Today As The “Wedgwood Look,” Characterized By Neoclassical Scenes And Motifs In A Cameo Silhouette.
