Early Blue and White Spode - Marble Pattern

A lovely sheet pattern based on the old Chinese design representing spring blossom falling on cracked ice. Introduced by Spode in 1821 and printed in medium blue with flowers in white against a line engraved background. Also called 'Mosaic' or 'Cracked Ice with Prunus'. Here we have a superb baking dish in excellent condition. For more details see Premier Antiques
