Microwave Cooking for One by Marie T SmithShopping for Formal Dinnerware
Spode Shima & Shima BorderSpode Shima was introduced in 1971 and was similar to an early Spode design from 1818, Willis Centre with Mosaic Border, a copy of a Chinese porcelain design. (The Willis name is thought to refer to the proprietor of the Thatched House Tavern in St. James' Street, London . Early Spode pieces from the 1820s are known with the Thatched House Tavern printed on the back of the plates.) The Shima pattern was discontinued in the early 1980s, but a pattern with the border only known as Shima Border was produced from 1986 to 1992. You can still add to your collection of Spode Shima and Shimma Border. Just monitor this page on a weekly basis for new listings.
