Authorities in our business will tell in no uncertain terms that Lorem Ipsum is that huge, huge no no to forswear forever. Not so fast, I'd say, there are some redeeming factors in favor of greeking text, as its use is merely the symptom of a worse problem to take into consideration.
Anyway, you still use Lorem Ipsum and rightly so, as it will always have a place in the web workers toolbox, as things happen, not always the way you like it, not always in the preferred order.

The Green Frog Sauce Tureen by Josiah Wedgwood, made between 1773 and 1774, exemplifies 18th-century artistry. It features scenes from Wales and England, including a castle and harbour and a ruined castle on the English coast.
Crafted for Catherine II, this tureen is part of the Green Frog Service, known for its historical and artistic value. Originally designed for the Chesme Palace near St. Petersburg, the service included 952 pieces with 1,244 views of Great Britain. Today, 770 pieces of twenty-eight shapes remain.
The Green Frog Service captures a lost era with views of parks, country houses, and ancient ruins, reflecting early industrial centres and landmarks of London. The service was exhibited in London before being shipped to Russia in 1774. It was housed in Chesme Palace until 1830 and later moved to the English Palace at Peterhof. Since 1910, the Hermitage Museum has preserved this outstanding decorative art. Explore more about the Green Frog Sauce Tureen on our collection page.
