Jasperware (or Jasper Ware) is a type of ceramic invented by Josiah Wedgwood in the 1770's, so it’s rightly synonymous with the Wedgwood company. The Jasperware name comes from the type of clay used in its production. The exact details remain a company secret. Japserware is beautifully made. The vast majority of patterned ceramics get their design from a transfer print which is then overglazed, but not so with Jasperware. It’s all hand made and hand decorated. The difference with Jasperware is the clay body itself is dyed during manufacturing. Jasperware is usually unglazed and is left with what’s known as a biscuit finish.
