While most Spode collectors know the iconic cobalt blue, this Aesop's Fables plate from the Archive Traditions Series offers something rarer and more striking — a rich cranberry-red transferware design that stops you in your tracks. The Aesop's Fables pattern draws from the ancient moral tales that have captivated storytellers for millennia, rendered here with the fine detail that only hand-engraved copper plate printing can achieve. Fine earthenware, approximately 10.5" in diameter — a genuinely distinctive piece that stands apart from the typical Spode Blue Room collection.
