About the Item
Attributed to William Griggs, circa 1880, this pair of lithographs in hand-painted black frames depict a set of Neoclassical Wedgwood amphora vases. Both prints are on cream paper, and the vases have dry-bodied colors associated with Wedgwood products and traces of shadows emanating from the bases, giving the vases a life-like appearance.
Plate XII
A single vase depicting a Neoclassical scene, further adorned with foliage, repeating key, husks, and snake handles.
Unpainted elements are presented as white, contrasting beautifully with the celadon green hue of the vase.
The bottom right of the print reads “Printed by Parrot et Co, 12, rue du Delta, Paris.”
Plate LX
Another singular vase, also celadon green with unpainted areas of white. The Neoclassical imagery is more prevalent, accompanied by foliage, rais-de-couer, banded fasces, and branch-like handles.
The bottom right of the print reads “W. Griggs”.
William Griggs, born in 1832 in England, invented a printing process known as chromolithography, that allowed for colored prints to be produced. While living in Peckham, Griggs manufactured photolithographic works as early as 1868. In the late 1800s, Griggs produced a series of lithographs with Wedgwood urns as subjects.

Antique Blue and White Lidded Vases from Savona, Italy, Circa 1800
Located in Dallas, TX
During the 17th through 19th centuries, highly skilled artisans in Savona, Italy, produced beautiful tin-glazed earthenware known as maiolica (majolica). These blue and white lidded vases with serpentine handles, from circa 1800, are such an example.
Early Savona offerings were painted cobalt blue on a white background, as seen on these vases. Because the scenes depicted on the main bodies are distinct, they are considered a near pair, although their dimensions do not vary. Both illustrations contain country houses surrounded by tall trees and fronted by vegetation emerging from rocky terrain. In each scene, people can be seen in front of the houses, with one having two citizens and the other having four. One of the renderings is bordered by roundels at the top and by a leafy vine at the bottom; the other vase does not have any surrounding motifs. The sides opposite the pastoral images are distinct as well: the one with the borders has curled vines surrounding the Savona Lighthouse (a production mark of studios from this region), while the other vase has the lighthouse above a pair of small foliate margents.
Both vases have domed, removable lids with a conical finial emerging from a painted sunburst. Curled leaves have been painted along the circumference above a solid blue ring. The two curvaceous handles are each comprised of a pair of snakes bound with a ribbon. Our blue and white lidded Savona vases...
