Spode Woodland For Christmas

One Week Until Christmas… Spode Woodland's designs are rooted in the traditions of hunting for game and its elaborate presentation on the table. Central to the charm of the pattern are the striking studies of different animals on each piece framed by the British Flowers border which dates back to 1831. One of our favorite things is the Spode Woodland….what a great gift the large mule deer platter, moose bowl, or these great mugs would be. Fill the bowl or tray with our great Farmhouse pancake mix and syrup and freshly ground Southern Pecan or Cinnamon Toddy coffee…and the Woodland Dog Bowls are the ultimate prize beautiful! Many of these pieces are market specials with great prices.
