Over the years many have asked me how the decorative reliefs, also called ornamentation, on Wedgwood jasper products are created and applied to the body of the item. There is no better explanation of how the reliefs are created than seeing it for yourself, so you might want to CLICK HERE to see just how it's done! The term we normally use for the application of the reliefs is "sprigging", and you'll see that word often, "sprigged relief" is a term to describe the ornamentation on jasperware bodies, so
here's how it's done, enjoy! You can go here to see lots more examples of sprigged relief on jasper!
