Dolphin Vintage Wedgwood Tuxedo Stud Buttons in New 14K Yellow and White Gold Settings, Black Basalt and White

14k yellow and white gold dolphin tuxedo studs with four 20th Century Wedgwood Jasperware round medallions, with the “Wedgwood” stamp behind each. The bezel is made of 14k white gold and the toggle-bar back mechanism is made of 14k yellow gold.

The Jasperware was acquired separately at auction and was bezel-set into these new tuxedo stud settings, that were custom designed for these objects.

The studs have a sliding post that locks into place.

The motif on the medallions are dolphins. The color of each medallion is black basalt jasper – a matte black -- with a white relief of the dolphins. This color combination is a signature of Wedgwood ceramics since the 18th century.

These tuxedo studs are part of a broader series of jewelry that is being custom made by Massoyan Jewelers, using Wedgwood Jasperware.

Background on Wedgwood:
Wedgwood was founded in 1759 by Josiah Wedgwood, a pioneering English potter who revolutionized ceramics with innovative techniques and neoclassical designs. He is best known for creating jasperware, a matte-finished stoneware. Over the centuries, Wedgwood became synonymous with elegance and craftsmanship, earning royal patronage and global acclaim.
