Nicholas Moore, author of Spode Greek, the most comprehensive study of the pattern Spode introduced in 1806, has identified more than forty different scenes recorded on center panels set against a vine sheet background. The border consists of four different vases, which remain constant by both design and position and four different figurative panels that vary piece to piece. Early pieces were printed underglaze in blue. Later on, the factory produced other more elaborate colored wares in selected Greek patterns.
