Spode Blue Italian Teapot



Made in England Blue on White Perfection
This teapot offers a beautifully classic blue and white look, with the lovely old Italian scene of a pictorial country setting and the delicately lovely floral homage to fine china beginnings in China. Complete with a `Made in England' stamp on the bottom, this gloriously shaped 'Blue Italian' Spode Teapot arrived well bubble-wrap packaged within and without of its Spode collector box. This teapot seems to be porcelain or fine bone china in appearance and weight, but this Spode line has been listed as earthenware and stoneware too so maybe only Spode knows, but if it is either of those latter heftier two, it is very lightweight for those wares.

Also listed as dishwasher and microwave safe, I can personally vouch for that promise on my coordinating `Made in England Spode Blue Italian' teacups and saucers, because they have been used nearly daily, and have faced the microwave and dishwasher here continually for years, without any hint of aging, crackling or fading.

Tea time
A perfect addition to my set of china; I have received many compliments about the shape and color. It looks elegant at tea time.

THIS IS A BEAUTIFUL TEAPOT
If you like English style, then the Spode collection is perfect - and this teapot reflects the best of this English tradition.
