The objects are uniformly matte, sage green, one of the most well-known shades of Wedgwood jasper ware. The material is ceramic, decorated with reliefs inspired by classical Greek and Roman designs. A heart-shaped, recessed object, the rim of which is decorated with a leaf motif. In the center is a white relief depicting a classical scene.
An oval-shaped, lidded box, the rim of which is also decorated with a leaf pattern. On the lid is a more complex relief depicting a classical mythological or allegorical scene.
A smaller, oval-shaped bowl with a wavy edge. This is also decorated with white relief, on which are children in playful poses.
The objects represent the Neoclassical style, popularized in the late 18th and early 19th centuries by Josiah Wedgwood with his jasper wares. The reliefs display the elegance and detail characteristic of classical ancient art. This piece has an attribution mark,
