Continuously produced in England since 1816, the Blue Italian pattern from Spode will easily find a home on a casual or more formal table. Utilizing an underglaze printing process created by Josiah Spode and still employed today, varying shades of blue and white make up the lovely design, adding a 3-dimensional depth to each piece.

Measuring 3 inches wide and 8-1/4 inches from handle to spout, this Blue Italian 2-cup sauce boat stands 4-1/2 inches high and is the perfect vessel to serve gravy, sauces, or au jus. The accompanying 5-1/4- by 9-inch stand protects the table from any runaway drips, and contains a depression in which the boat easily rests. Based upon a late 17th Century drawing, the central design depicts classic Italian ruins in a pastoral setting and decorates the outer bowl of the sauce boat as well as the circular indention on the tray. An 18th Century Chinese-inspired floral motif adorns the wavy outer edge of the stand as well as the small handle of the boat. Crafted from Spode's high-quality earthenware, known as Imperialware, this set can safely be placed in the microwave or dishwasher. --Lea Werbel
