Condition Notes:

This vintage Wedgwood Jasperware pitcher is in good overall condition, presenting beautifully for display. There are metal remnants from a previous lid, indicating that the piece once had a fitted metal top. These traces are visible on inspection but do not detract from the overall decorative appeal of the pitcher and are consistent with age and prior use. No major structural damage is noted, and the bas-relief work remains well-defined and attractive.

As with all vintage ceramics, minor signs of age or handling should be expected, but this example retains the refined look and presence that make Wedgwood Jasperware so desirable.
