CopelandCopeland Spode is a famous porcelain company producing pottery and porcelain that was established around 1770 by Josiah Spode at Stoke-on-Trent, England. Josiah Spode became well-known the world over for pioneering the blue underglaze printing process and for co-developing the recipe for fine bone china. He garnered immense success in the production of fine cream-coloured earthenware called creamware as well as making fine white-glazed earthenware called pearlware. The company was taken over by William Copeland and Thomas Garrett and since then, the name was changed. The name is familiar to people as it was commonly seen on nineteenth-century English porcelain pieces. By 1847, William Copeland became the sole owner and the name was changed once again, this time to ’Copeland’. The porcelain wares from the company are renowned for their intricate hand painted designs, which are of very high quality. The wares made by the company in its early days have now become much sought after collectibles. It makes for a great addition for any Copeland Spode collector. The popular Copeland Spode porcelain and Copeland china wares available include Copeland Spode Gilman Collamore Gorgeous 9" plate, Copeland Spode ermine centurion 4 bread dessert plates, Copeland Spode Chintz George III bread plate and antique Copeland Spode 'Dubarry' sugar bowl, among several others. |
