Spode is a trusted and coveted name in ceramics, and rightly so; they've been producing lovely tableware in England since the late 1700s. Spode's bone china is of the highest quality and is valued for its strength and pure white color. The Christmas Rose pattern, first introduced in 1890, features a floral border and an elegant Victorian colour palette of clean white, berry red, burnished gold, and a range of natural greens.

The pieces in the 5-piece Christmas Rose service-for-one place setting are made from snowy white bone china, with thin rim borders of red-orange trimmed with 22-carat gold. Each piece is wreathed with illustrative borders of white Christmas roses entwined with holly and mistletoe. (The simple white Christmas rose is a winter bloom in England.) Beneath the wreath-like borders are smaller garlands of holly and mistletoe. Other matching Christmas Rose serving pieces include a 3-1/2-quart soup tureen and a 2-cup sauce or gravy boat.

To help preserve the decorative borders and gold-painted accents, Spode recommends that its bone china products be hand washed in hot water with a mild detergent. Avoid abrasive cleansers or scrubbers that might scratch or mar decorated surfaces. Placing paper towels or other padding material between stacked plates also helps prevent scratching. Spode bone china is not recommended for use in the microwave, oven, or freezer. The 5-piece Christmas Rose place setting includes one 10-1/2-inch dinner plate, one 8-inch salad plate, one 6-1/4-inch bread plate, one 5-3/4-inch saucer, and one 6-ounce teacup. --Garland Withers
