Indulge in the timeless elegance of English neoclassical design with this exquisite Wedgwood lilac jasperware diced trophy cabinet plate, featuring the iconic Aurora and Chariot scene in crisp white bas-relief. Crafted in England by Wedgwood, this collector’s cabinet plate showcases the refined artistry and luxurious finish that have made Wedgwood a benchmark in fine jasperware for generations.
At the heart of the plate is a beautifully modelled white bas-relief of Aurora in her Chariot, a classical motif that captures the goddess of the dawn in graceful motion. The crisp detailing of the figures contrasts elegantly with the soft lilac jasper ground, creating a striking focal point that draws the eye and highlights Wedgwood’s mastery of relief work.
Encircling the central medallion is an intricate “Ram’s Head and Garland” border, a celebrated Wedgwood decorative motif. Stylised ram’s heads are linked by delicate floral and foliate swags, forming a continuous garland that adds depth, texture, and sophistication to the rim. This refined decoration is further enhanced by the diced trophy border, lending the plate a formal, architectural presence that makes it ideal as a cabinet or display piece.
This lilac jasperware plate measures approximately 8 3/4 inches in diameter (about 22.2 cm), a perfect size for display in a china cabinet, on a plate stand, or as part of a curated wall arrangement of fine pottery and porcelain. The reverse is clearly stamped “Wedgwood Made in England”, confirming its authenticity and origin from one of Britain’s most revered ceramic manufacturers.
The plate is in good condition throughout, with no significant damage noted. The lilac jasper body retains its attractive, even colour, and the white bas-relief decoration remains crisp and well-defined. As with most vintage and antique jasperware, very light signs of age and handling may be present, consistent with careful display rather than heavy use. This piece has clearly been cherished and well cared for, making it a wonderful addition to an existing Wedgwood collection or an ideal starting point for a new one.
Perfect for collectors of Wedgwood jasperware, lovers of classical and neoclassical design, or anyone seeking a refined decorative accent, this Aurora and Chariot cabinet plate brings a sense of history, artistry, and luxury to any interior. Its subtle lilac hue pairs beautifully with both traditional and contemporary décors, making it a versatile statement piece for display on a mantel, sideboard, or in a glazed cabinet.
Whether you are curating a collection of fine English pottery, searching for a special gift for a lover of classical art, or simply looking to elevate your home with a distinctive decorative object, this Wedgwood lilac jasperware diced trophy plate offers elegance, craftsmanship, and enduring appeal.
