These nice candelabra boast Wedgwood plaques.  Wedgwood was founded by the British potter and entrepreneur Josiah Wedgwood in 1759 in Staffordshire, England. An independent potter, he experimented with clay in many variations. One of his products was unglazed vitreous fine stoneware in many colors, known more commonly as Jasperware. The light blue Jasperware proved particularly popular, and it became known as “Wedgwood Blue”. Josiah Wedgwood was a pioneer of the Industrial Revolution, improving the production process and making his wares affordable to a wider audience. He introduced techniques such as transfer printing as well. He had a keen eye for design and was willing to collaborate with famous artists and designers of his time. From the time of Queen Charlotte, wife of King George III, commissioning a set of cream-colored earthenware, the royal families of England have loved Wedgwood. Collectors and historical enthusiasts continue to admire Wedgwood for its design quality and craftsmanship
