Things I can (almost) afford but can’t justify: Wedgwood Crimson Jasper Pitcher
From the dealer’s description: “This marvelous Wedgwood jasper dip bas-relief jug displays the rare and highly prized crimson color. Crimson jasper pieces were only created for a short period of time by Wedgwood during the 1920s, and they are highly collectible.”
