Utterly beautiful
By Mary Kapture
This Spode pattern is both lush AND classic - wonderful for those of us who already have all the perfectly tasteful (read UNADORNED) Rosenthal and Wedgewood we can stand. When I saw this pattern I fell in love - it feels like stepping into an illustration from a Dickens Novel; the color is as deep as a stained glass church window. It is Christmas personified. Not cutsie or overly sweet, its rich illustrative quality design calls forth the beautiful legend of the christmas rose. And of course it works for the entire season - not just for the week leading up to the HO-HO-HO countdown.It goes without saying that Spode makes good quality porcelain - this is no exception. The glazes are perfect and consistent.I'm collecting Christmas Rose not simply because I love it. I also know that the pattern is timeless - it will be loved by my daughter and her children and it will be relevant as long as people celebrate Christmas.

The Christmas Rose china is elegant and timeless. I've had a set of this holiday china for more than a decade and have always received wonderful comments on it. Spode rereleased this Victorian pattern a number of years ago, so it is an authentic classic pattern. It's not cheap, but because of the design it has a bit more usefulness than many other "Christmas" china sets. I bring it out on Thanksgiving and use it throughout the winter holiday season.
