Spode

Spode is the leader of a gang of fascist toughs known as the Black Shorts.

Art made from Spode ceramics broken when a car crashed through the brand's museum is featured in a new exhibition.

The English artist Thomas Frye first experimented with bone ash — the remnants after water, fat and connective tissue are burned off — before Spode fine-tuned the process, creating a durable but delicate product.

If you’re drowning in Spode Christmas Tree plates, give them away during December when others can make use of them as appetizer serving plates.

Students are brought to the old Spode factory where they have the chance to learn about the city's heritage, get their hands dirty in clay and discover what the future might hold.
