Description of Spode Blue Italian Earthenware 9-3/4-Inch Square BowlOne of the classic tableware patterns, Blue Italian has been in continuous production in England since 1816. Perfectly framed by the 18th Century Chinese border, the central scene of the Italian ruins from a late 17th Century drawing, each piece still requires the most skilled hand engraving to create its remarkable sense of space and style. The Blue Italian Square Bowl 9- 1/4 inch is perfect for everyday use and will be cherished for years to come! Made in England of high-quality earthenware, Imperialware. Continuously produced in England since 1816, the Blue Italian pattern from Spode will easily find a home on a casual or more formal table. Utilizing an underglaze printing process created by Josiah Spode and still employed today, varying shades of blue and white make up the lovely design, adding a 3-dimensional depth to each piece. Measuring 9-3/4 inches on each side, this Blue Italian square bowl stands 4-3/4 inches high and is the perfect size for serving a large salad, a side of vegetables, or a bowl full of popcorn. Based upon a late 17th Century drawing, the central design depicts classic Italian ruins in a pastoral setting and decorates the outer bowl as well as the bottom of the vessel. An oversized 18th Century Chinese-inspired floral motif adorns the inner and outer edge of this large, square bowl, while slightly curved corners complete the unique design. Crafted from Spode's high-quality earthenware, known as Imperialware, this large bowl can safely be placed in the microwave or dishwasher. --Lea Werbel
