Object history
The intaglios formed from this mould did not appear in Wedgwood & Bentley's catalogues during Josiah Wedgwood's lifetime but were listed as 447 (sic) in Boardman's 1817 reprint. It is probable that intaglios produced from this mould were made between 1788 and 1817, although they are most likely to be 18th century.
