WEDGWOOD EXHIBIT AT ROYAL ONTARIO MUSEUM

Here is another exhibit of Wedgwood that should be excellent ~ the ROM holdings are well known and worth a visit! - Wedgwood: Artistry and Innovation Until August 29, 2010

"Classic design and changing styles are featured in this beautiful exhibition of nearly 100 of the finest Wedgwood wares in Canada.
Discover the genius of founder Josiah Wedgwood I (1730-1795), whose diverse, high-quality products and business practices revolutionized the English ceramics industry in the 18th century.

The ROM's outstanding collection of Wedgwood includes pieces of "Queen’s Ware" from the table of Catherine the Great, copies of the famed “Portland Vase,” a black basalt relief that weighs over 800 pounds, as well as exquisite cameo medallions and jewellery." Send us a review and your pictures if you go there so we can share with our visitors!
