A collection of Spode earthenware plates of circular and octagonal form. The assortment features various underglaze blue transfer-printed patterns, including classical Italianate landscapes, architectural ruins, floral bouquets, and botanical studies. One octagonal plate features a commemorative design with the Royal Coat of Arms and the date 2002, likely for the Golden Jubilee?. Another octagonal plate displays a Greek key border surrounding multiple pastoral scenes in the Blue Room Sutherland Collection?. The reverse of the plates bears a circular printed mark reading ‘Spode’, ‘Made in ENGLAND’, ‘ITALIAN’, ‘SPODE DESIGN’, and ‘C.1816 AO’. The mark also includes the text ‘DISHWASHER SAFE’ and ‘MICROWAVE SAFE’ around its perimeter, with two small black dots placed above and below the central text block.
