The Spode Christmas Tree pattern was first introduced in 1938 and was designed by Harold Holdway. He chose to use the traditional Christmas tree as the focal point of the pattern. It is brightly decorated with decorations, balls & tinsel and is topped with Santa Claus holding his toy sack over his shoulder. Gifts in bright, festive colors & patterns are under the tree. Many pieces of this pattern are additionally embellished with a sprig of mistletoe and/or boughs of holly. A green band decorates the edge of most pieces. (There is also the Spode Christmas Tree pattern with a crimson band.)

This traditional Christmas china pattern was popular & produced by Spode until the closure of the company in 2009. The company was founded by Josiah Spode in the late 1760's. (Yes, that's right…Spode has been around for over 250 years!) Different partnerships & names occurred through the years, most notably when “Copeland” came along in 1805 (tho, various company name changes ensued but always kept the Spode brand). The Spode brand name was purchased by Portmeirion in 2009.
