DIAMOND Diamond is a contemporary barware collection that brings a clean-cut look and feel to lead crystal. This has been achieved by designing simple forms which are mouth blown and then hand cut with a tight diamond pattern to the lower third and bottom of each piece. As light passes through the crystal it is brought to life by refractions which create a myriad of colours and glistening sparkles.

SPECK Every piece in the Speck collection has a unique identity decorated with a seemingly random array of dots. When bone china is fired, metal elements in the clay can react leaving tiny black dots on the otherwise perfect pieces. These black dots are known as speck. Traditionally manufacturers have selected their ware, reserving pieces with speck for designs that cover up much of the bone china. The Speck collection challenges tradition by celebrating these random and unavoidable imperfections. Wherever a speck appears, it is covered by a small, circular copper dot. The pieces are finished with cobalt blue edging. The result is a refined and graphic collection where no two pieces are the same.

WHITE Bone china is a quintessentially British material. Josiah Spode perfected its formula over two centuries ago, creating the most remarkable ceramic known to man. It has the whitest body and highest weight to strength ratio of any type of porcelain. The white collection is remarkably durable and the perfect canvas for food.

REFLECT ‘Reflect’ brings life back to antique saucers, missing their other halves, by using platinum and gold gilding to create highly reflective cups. The mirrored cups reflect the patterned saucers, uniting them as perfect couples. Each cup is skillfully hand painted and then paired with a saucer, that Richard meticulously sources himself from antique dealers across Britain. The images below are examples of the style and quality of antique saucers which we pair, and sell,

Bone China Care Instructions Bone china can be washed in a dishwasher - at a maximum temperature of 60째C. However, where precious metals are used (gold or platinum) ware should be washed by hand and not used in the microwave. Scouring pads or abrasive washing agents must not be used. Soaking in warm water before washing will remove most stains or hardened on particles. Stubborn stains can be removed by soaking in a mild bleach solution for up to one hour without damaging the china. When storing plates, try not to slide them over one another as this may cause tiny scratches in the glaze. We recommend a paper napkin is placed between each plate.
Cut Crystal Care Instructions Wash your crystal by hand with warm soapy water and a soft sponge. Scouring pads or abrasive washing agents should not be used. Do not put your crystal in the dishwasher as the detergents can permanently dull or scratch the surface. Dry your crystal immediately after washing using a lint-free cloth. Do not put your crystal in a microwave or conventional oven. Do not store your crystal glasses upside-down, the lip of the glass is delicate and may be damaged under the weight of the glass. Do not store food or beverage in your crystal, only use your products for serving. Prior to using decanters for the first time fill them with 50/50 solution of vinegar and water and let stand for 24 hours. Rinse thoroughly and dry. All pieces in the Diamond collection should be placed on a coaster to avoid damage to surfaces.
