The Wedgwood handbook 391

Border.

That which limits, edges, car ornaments a piece. A border may be enamelled, printed, or raised above the surface in bas-relief. Under all these forms Wedgwood's borderings are most varied and beautiful. He copied largely from the antique. His chief borders are the anthemion, helix, ivy, Greek fret, mseander, chain-guilloche, feather- edge, bead, and many others. See under respective headings.
