The Piece
A refined Wedgwood jasperware miniature planter or cachepot, dating to approximately the 1930s–1950s, rendered in classic white-on-white with applied floral garland relief. Modest in scale but rich in detail, the piece exemplifies Wedgwood’s mastery of form, restraint, and surface texture—an object designed to elevate everyday interiors rather than dominate them.
Design & Construction
Wedgwood Jasperware Cachepot
→ Maker: Wedgwood
→ Date: c. 1930s–1950s
→ Material: Jasperware (unglazed stoneware)
→ Color: White
→ Decoration: Applied floral relief garland
→ Base: Molded foot with impressed Wedgwood mark
The matte jasper body offers a soft, sculptural surface, allowing the raised floral motif to catch light subtly rather than reflect it.
Condition
Very good vintage condition. No chips or cracks observed. Light surface wear and fine age-related fissuring consistent with jasperware and period use. Base bears the original impressed Wedgwood mark; felt pads have been added later for surface protection.
Why It Belongs in Your Home
Because good design doesn’t need color to be interesting. This piece works as a planter for small succulents, a vessel for brushes or utensils, or as a standalone sculptural accent layered into shelving or tabletop arrangements. It brings quiet authority—the kind that signals taste without announcing itself.
Every piece is packed with professional-grade materials: multiple foam layers, double-boxing, directional and fragile handling labels. For large furniture we use custom timber crating. We photograph packing before dispatch and can provide images on request.

Antiques are irreplaceable and one-of-a-kind. Carrier handling is outside our control once a piece has left our facility, and major carriers including FedEx do not insure antiques. We do everything within our power to ensure safe transit, but cannot accept liability for carrier damage. If damage occurs in transit, we will provide full documentation to support your carrier claim.
