Description
In the 18th Century, Josiah Wedgwood raised pottery-making from a peasant craft to an art. Through his research, inventions, skill and taste, he became one of the most celebrated and influential craftsmen of all time. Called the "Father of English Potters", Wedgwood is also remembered for his most prized invention, Jasper, fine stoneware best known in the delicate color recognized around the world as Wedgwood blue!
This classic soft blue is the inspiration for Barbie doll's magnificent skirt, bustier and jewelry. The centerpiece of her stunning four strand simulated-pearl necklace is an authentic Jasper™ cameo with white classical relief on a soft blue ground. Handcrafted in England by Wedgwood, the graceful cameo is set in a golden frame with simulated-pearl drop.
Her satin skirt and bustier are trimmed in white embroidery, inspired by an original Wedgwood design. The full skirt has a draped apron front accented at the back with a tailored bow. With her jet black upswept hairstyle, soft makeup and long evening gloves, Wedgwood Barbie doll is the very picture of classic grace, capturing the beauty and elegance that has made Wedgwood products legendary.
