A jasperware ceramic cameo brooch of John Wesley in profile, looking left. Pieces of jewellery commemorating John Wesley such as this are less common than other ceramic memorabilia, including Wesley busts, crockery and small portraits for the home.

The cameo is in its original leather box. The brooch has additional fixings to enable the owner to wear the cameo as a pendant from a necklace.
