Wedgwood Ceramic Intaglio Sprig Mold Foliate Block
This ceramic production tool is an intaglio sprig mold block manufactured by Wedgwood in the United Kingdom. It is crafted from off-white bisque earthenware or a fine-grained stoneware material. The item is shaped as a solid, thick rectangular block with slightly arched top and bottom surfaces and beveled long edges. The primary face features an incised botanical motif of a stylized wheat stalk or leaf sprig, with the word SAUCER impressed into the surface. One side of the block is marked with the impressed manufacturer name WEDGWOOD and the letters LH. The reverse side retains a circular label for the Rubin Collection. This type of tool was used in the manufacturing process to create relief sprigs for application to pottery vessels.
