DESCRIPTION:-
Available for sale is an Original Wedgwood Miniature "Upright" Shape Jug in Dark Blue Jasper Dip 1924 Wembley Exhibition Souvenir
A rare diminutive version of Wedgwood's rope-handled "Upright" shape jug is adorned with the Wembley lion, in a columned architectural structure. The inscription "Wembley 1924" as a souvenir of the British Empire Exhibition. Appropriately for a celebration of achievement in industry and the arts, Wedgwood includes an armourial for the City of London on the reverse side ( most Have Josiah Wedgwood). The grapevine or "fruiting" border, standard for this jug shape, is the only other ornament. The 1924 British Empire Exhibition was a gigantic exposition designed to encourage unity and trade among the fifty-eight nations that were then components of the British Empire. Those who saw the terrific film The King's Speech will recall the painful opening scene in which Prince Albert, later George VI stammers through a public address. That scene was, in fact, a recreation of the prince's appearance at the closing of the British Empire Exhibition.
Mark: Impressed WEDGWOOD, MADE IN ENGLAND
Date: mid 1920's
Dimensions: Height 2 1/2 in.; diameter 1 3/4 in. width 2 3/8 in.
CONDITION ISSUES:- The top of the jug has a rough edge but under an eyeglass is glazed so suspect Wedgwood made loads and simply cut the tops rather than finish nicely
