A Wedgwood rosso antico coffee pot made ca. 1810. The pot’s red body is accentuated by black basalt details in the Egyptian Revival style.
Developed by Josiah Wedgwood in the 1760s, rosso antico famously exhibits the Egyptian Revival style that became popular in the early 19th century during Napoleon’s Egyptian campaign. However, as the name suggests, these ‘antique red’ wares also made reference to the ancient pottery
