Josiah Wedgwood is not known to have made enamelled earthenware figures. Ralph was the eldest son of Wedgwood's cousin and partner, Thomas Wedgwood. He took on a business begun by Thomas (d. 1788) in 1790.referenceterm-120914adlib-term-12091438282250-24c1-3658-b0f2-472946f4254c18th Century, Late-19th Century, Early#referenceterm-107437adlib-term-10743796f4b0d1-fc11-39ff-ae91-1b23d888d479George IIIreferenceterm-108171adlib-term-108171c943fe08-bd72-32ab-823c-e1eeb56717b3literalEnglandEnglandcountryliteralStaffordshireStaffordshireregionBurslemreferenceterm-107733adlib-term-10773300160189-e3ce-3796-a88b-5aa8d6c808c4lead-glazereferenceterm-42861adlib-term-428615b368285-f1a8-3dcf-a5b2-637fd3c3956cearthenwareHeightcm74referencemedia-47464adlib-media-47464be1a1a04-0887-3f76-aa0c-b0d8a819eb46jpegaa/aa4/C_903_1928_281_29.jpg1heightpixels740widthpixels51716162753391731imagejpegaa/aa4/mid_C_903_1928_281_29.jpg1heightpixels716widthpixels50016162753391731imagejpegaa/aa4/C_903_1928_281_29.jpg1heightpixels740widthpixels51716162753391731imagejpegaa/aa4/preview_C_903_1928_281_29.jpg1heightpixels358widthpixels25016162753391731image0media
