THE ORCHID ROOM

Inspired by Wedgwood fine china

Jasper is Josiah Wedgwood’s collection of unglazed vitreous stoneware, created in 1774 and made in a range of colours. The signature, light blue Jasper is the one that gave rise to the expression ‘Wedgwood Blue’ and is the inspiration behind the Orchid Room’s colour scheme.
