Made in England

Each piece of this designer pottery collection is made in Spode’s factory in Stoke-on-Trent, England. There, Spode’s talented craftsmen and women carefully craft each piece using 250 years of knowledge passed down through the centuries from Spode’s founder, Josiah Spode.

In fact, the Black Italian design originates from Josiah and his son’s efforts in the 1800s. They couldn’t possibly have known that their creation was to define what is now known as unmistakably Spode in 2020.
