{"product_id":"spode-blue-italian-side-plate","title":"Spode Blue Italian Side Plate","description":"\u003cp\u003eA blue pastoral landscape framed by a broad floral border covers this small Spode Italian side plate.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMade in England, the plate belongs to Spode's Blue Italian range, whose design dates to 1816. Its central scene combines a ruined classical arch, distant buildings, trees and water with figures and cattle in the foreground. Around the rim, alternating floral panels, curling foliage and patterned blue grounds create a contrasting ornamental frame. The border follows the circular outline, while a narrow band separates it from the landscape. The reverse carries a black printed Spode mark naming the Italian design and identifying English manufacture. The accompanying A7 code supports production circa 2007, distinguishing this later example from earlier editions of the long-running pattern. The decoration relates to pieces in the \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/blue-and-whites\"\u003eBlues and Whites collection\u003c\/a\u003e, including the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/copeland-spodes-italian-blue-white-tea-cup-and-saucer\"\u003eCopeland Spode’s Italian Blue and White Tea Cup and Saucer\u003c\/a\u003e.
