Diana is a goddess in Roman and Hellenistic mythology, primarily considered a patroness of the countryside and nature, hunters, wildlife, childbirth, crossroads, the night, and the moon.
In 1804, Josiah Wedgwood began creating the iconic Jasperware. With intricate neo-classical motifs on a traditional Wedgwood bisque background, this is the ultimate adornment for a chatelain or chatelaine!
