It’s been more than two centuries since the pioneering Josiah Wedgwood started inspiring people all over the world to decorate their tables with creativity and style. Quintessentially English and steeped in a rich, storied heritage, Wedgwood continues to be synonymous with exquisite craft, innovative design and timeless elegance.<\/p>\n
One key to this creative approach is our ability to reach back into our archives and put a contemporary spin on classic forms. When you have a history as deep and rich as ours, you have an almost inexhaustible store of artistic heritage to use as inspiration. That said, you don\u2019t want to cling to the past. The artistry comes in achieving the balance to produce classically inspired yet stirringly modern designs.<\/p>\n
Which brings us to Renaissance.<\/p>\n

To really grasp Renaissance, you have to view it as more a grouping of classical motifs rather than one singular pattern. Each component is a key part of Wedgwood\u2019s history.<\/p>\n
The cameo, for instance, those swooping oval shapes, dates back to 1785, when Matthew Boulton designed scent bottles crafted in Jasper for Wedgwood. They are a Roman form, and typically depict important personages in profile or seminal historical scenes, much like a coin.<\/p>\n
The other significant element is borrowings from the famous Florentine pattern. A favourite since its introduction in 1931, this design features a cavorting cornucopia of mystical creatures and fantastical flora.<\/p>\n

This generation of Renaissance began in 2009, with three beautiful colourways: Gold, Red and Grey. In classic Wedgwood style, these pieces display an aesthetic that exquisitely balances classic and contemporary, the cameo and Florentine accents featured prominently.<\/p>\n
[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ _builder_version=”4.19.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.19.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.19.5″ _module_preset=”default” text_orientation=”center” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n
The new Renaissance Accents extension is the latest evolution of this look. This exuberant aesthetic reworks and reimagines those classical elements to forge a fresh, modern interpretation that still remains steeped in historical authenticity.<\/p>\n
For example, the ornate, detailed depictions of female forms found in classic Jasper pieces are a major inspiration for these accent pieces. These figures, going about their daily lives or taking part in ceremonial rites, portray an ineffable elegance that transcends their everyday surroundings.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Our designers channelled this spirit to capture their sophistication and charm, breathing bold new life into their enduring allure.<\/p>\n
Each piece reflects the elite craft of Wedgwood, with the iconic silhouettes set in fine bone china and finished with luxurious 22-carat hand-lined detailing.<\/p>\n
