Florentine-Blue  by Wedgwood

Wedgwood’s Florentine-Blue is a fascinating pattern featuring wide cobalt blue bands intricately decorated with delicate scrollwork and detailed figures of griffins.  The use of griffins by Wedgwood in Florentine-Blue is rooted in history.  Griffins are mythological creatures most often depicted with the heads of lions and the wings of eagles.  Since the 15th century, griffins have been especially prominent in the English tradition of "heraldry."  Heraldry is the craft associated with producing a family’s coat-of-arms.  The griffin was commonly used in coats-of-arms as a symbol of pride, masculinity, and strength.  This of course made the griffin an immediate favorite with kings, nobles, and state heroes throughout Europe.   This month we offer a 5-piece place setting consisting of a cup with saucer, dinner plate, salad plate, and rimmed soup bowl. In addition to this place setting value, we offer a variety of serving pieces including the creamer, sugar bowl with lid, oval vegetable bowl, salad serving bowl, and tureen with lid.  Since its inception, Florentine-Blue has been one of Wedgwood’s most sought after patterns.  Start at this link to add these beautiful pieces to your table!
