Life is just too short, so these beautiful ceramic items should be enjoyed often, not just for the special occasions. I'm sure they would bring a smile to your face every time you see them. I have a small Christmas collection from Villeroy & Boch, and they bring so much inner joy to me, every time I see them. They keep me company from the first day of Advent all the way to Epiphany. I keep them in a glass cupboard and that way I can still enjoy in their beauty all year round. 😊
It's so true! We were talking to Michael (he runs the Spode Museum) and Eve and they said the very same. It makes such a difference to use pretty china every single day. I love the V&B Christmas collection, they always bring out such lovely items.
I am 56, when I was a child one of my grandmothers had the blue and white dishes in a glass cabinet and we were never allowed to touch them but I was amazed by them because the plates had scenes from a medieval pub… I would just stare at the scene and picture myself there!! Thanks for bringing back memories!! Red neck from Mississippi
Oh thank you for sharing your trip to the Spode Museum, everything is so beautiful, I was so excited to see what you chose Kirsten, love the spice and herb jars, so elegant, see you next time. xx 🤗
All your videos are wonderful, but I do love your videos where you go and show museums, shops, and factories with ceramics. Your herbs containers are beautiful. ❤
Hello from Canada. I love Spode. My Grampa gifted us with a Spode dinner service for 6 for our wedding 52 years ago. It is called Bridal Rose and it is a treasure.💕Over the years I have added a gorgeous tea pot, small dessert plates, a sugar bowl with lid and tiny butter pat plates. Our daughter and son in law gifted us the large platter on our 25th wedding anniversary. Thank you so much for taking us through the Spode museum. I fell in love with all that amazing blue Spode. Absolutely stunning. I could spend hours in there. Love your channel. So glad I found you. Looking forward to seeing your new kitchen. 🥰🇨🇦💐
I agree..it was really a wonderful gift! There is one complete with "Bridal Rose" on Etsy but unfortunately it's too expensive for my pocket 😮💨 It will remain a dream in the drawer for now and tomorrow...who knows😊 Greetings from Italy!
My parents had a very close friend who worked at Spode and we were very lucky to obtain lovely pieces over the years at reduced prices. Funny story, the friend obtained a number of rare pieces, particularity a collection of demi-tasse cups that were not allowed to be touched and were hidden away in a cabinet. One night, my Dad and his friend had a rather tipsy evening...all evening actually. The following morning they decided to brew coffee and christen the rare demi-tasses. Well, you can only imagine the aftermath! Mr. Spode's wife and my mother went completely ballistic that they had the audacity to touch the demi-tasses, never mind the coffee grounds all over the kitchen floor!
These dishes bring back wonderful memories of my great-grandmother. She couldn't afford Spode, but she had blue and white dishes. I believe they were Johnson Brothers Willow Blue. She brought them over from England to America in 1906. Thank you for the video. ❤
Thanks Kirsten & Joerg! A visit to Spode is a real treat! There are too many beautiful ceramics that I would never be able to choose a favourite pattern. I love them all! Again, thanks for the tour of the museum, the shop, and your personal treasures.
I like the dress you wore at the museum. What a lovely video seeing all the beautiful dishes. I am glad you changed your mind and bought the utensil container. It will last you your life and still live on after so that is not expensive.
Thank you for taking me to see the beautiful and varied items at Spode; I truly enjoyed it! I also liked your private museum with the Woodland collection.
I would be in heaven going to that place.. I love all things Spode and have quite a few pieces and as I have a country kitchen the blue and white crockery looks fabulous. I would love one of the "Utensils" pieces you bought Kirsten..it will look great in your new kitchen (so exciting). Happy Days😊🇦🇺
This was a great video. I loved every minute of it. Of course I love shopping and the shops in the UK are phenomenal. Thanks once again for taking me along and brightening my day.
I absolutely love blue and white ceramics. I'm not lucky enough to have many pieces from England. Every time you visit a ceramic shop I am in awe of all the lovely things. Thank you for letting us see what's out there.
another wonderful fun afternoon with Kirsten and Joerg for me. I love by every single video you entertain us with! Every week is so special and always absolutely over-the-top good. Places we would never ever be able to visit and I feel like I have been there now! Thank you so much for taking time sharing your filming great talent with all of us! Love you guys all the way from Oklahoma.❤❤❤
I love following the two of you from cottage to cottage. This video makes a person so envious, just to browse through all of the different Spode patterns. Any of these wii be beautiful in your new kitchen. There are so many styles to choose from. If I could I would choose Spode for a new kitchen, starting with a large platter. You can’t go wrong! It is a joy going through the shop with you. Everything is so elegant.
Thank you so much! We love so much so need to self-control as we do have Burleigh pottery for our every day use and add to it throughout the year. We love Burleigh so much too and have been loving it for decades. We won't be buying every day Spode but just add some bits and bobs.
I’m thrilled for you that the time is so close to having your NEW KITCHEN! THSNK YOU SO MUCH for the tour of SPODE!! Blue Italian is my pattern I began collecting just a few years ago. I LOVE my blue and white Spode and like yourselves, I would collect the Woodland pattern for fall use if I had seen it in my area my son-in-law has the Christmas set from his Mother 😊!
I do adore the china videos! I love dishware. I have quite a collection of the blue spice jars also! You're so fortunate to be able to get a new lid to your teapot. I am in america - I have the wee blue tea pot like yours but I am unable to get a replacement here. I just can't bear to be parted from the teapot though. Thank you for the video!
I inherited a love of fine china from my grandmother who grew up in Stoke on Trent. Her dream was to have three sets of dishes - one for each meal of the day. I absolutely loved your trip to the Spode shop; I could spend a lot of time there. Please do go back when they have a tea room. I can just imagine the collection of vintage plates and cups and saucers they’ll use 🥰
Liebe Kirsten und Jörg, was für ein schönes und sehr interessantes Video. Das Museum und Geschäft ist ein Traum für jeden der Porzellan liebt. Man möchte es nicht glauben, aber auch schon früher wurde sehr viel Wert auf schönes Porzellan gelegt und ich finde es war wunderschön. Dankeschön fürs Zeigen. Ich wünsche Euch noch eine schöne Woche, liebe Grüße von Anneliese 🥰🍂🍁🦔🌻
Vielen Dank liebe Anneliese! Ja, wir haben sogar eher den Eindruck, dass früher noch viel mehr Wert auf schönes Porzellan gelegt wurde. Ganz ganz liebe Grüße und auch für dich noch eine schöne Restwoche
Love your taste in spodewear! A,s my collecting days are over. You two make me remember when I traveled locally and collected beloved items! Thank yo-yo 😘😘😘
What a lovely treat touring the Spode museum and shop with you. I love china so much and have amassed a very varied collection mainly through many, many trips to op shops. I have a few pieces of the Spode blueroom collection and I treasure them. I don't come across a lot of Spode down here in New Zealand so it's always exciting to find a piece.
Hi K and J 👋👋 I do NOT know how you decide🫤🤔! I absolutely LOVED all the Floral Tea Pots. With my love for all things Jane Austen… I can see myself in a beautiful dress weary one of those darling Spencer Jackets serving Tea. I guess I’m a “ HOPELESS” romantic. 😊😊😊 IDK… all these beautiful ceramics speak about “ LOVE” and elegance to me. It’s a feeling. Those deep soup bowls are NECESSARY.. lol, YES??? Can’t wait for the kitchen to come and You will need patience to get through the mess??? 😊❤️❤️! Thx guys as always🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻
Hi Eileen, It's very hard because I want it all but it doesn't make sense so I love to look at things and enjoy sharing it on our channel. Yes, it will get very messy here in a couple of weeks.
Wonderful tour! 💙🤍 The blue and white is so fresh and lovely.. your new Utensil holder and herb pots will be so beautiful in your new kitchen!! So exciting.. we are looking forward to seeing it! The detail in Spode is so special.. I have a bowl I am so fond of by Spode.. each design is prettier than the last one!! 💚🩵🩷💛
Yay, thanks a million Marcia! I just love visiting the Spode Museum Trust so much and the museum shop is incredible. Such unique pieces at amazing prices. It's wonderful that you have a bowl from Spode, it will always remain gorgeous.x
I loved this video, and I love China! I have my everyday dishes, my Miksa China from our wedding, a beautiful set of spring dishes which had been a gift from my mother-in-law and a set of dishes for Christmas. I also have a beautiful teacup collection I inherited from my grandmother and mother-in-law. I would have more, but don't have any more room, LOL! I wish I had a spare room in this house for just to store China, linens, etc. I especially loved the deep soup dishes you looked at with the floral patten and the Spode pheasant dishes. Your purchases will look so nice in your new kitchen, looking forward to seeing the transformation! 💙💙💙
Every bit of this was fascinating! Those copper plates are art in themselves. I was delighted to "explore" the shop with you, and am looking forward to the new kitchen! Exciting❤❤😊 Love, Liz in Essex, Connecticut
Hello Kirsten & Joerg. Dovie loves your videos about pottery/ ceramics. We especially like the wildlife scenes. We both like pheasants. We just found two silver pheasant table decorations. We drink our coffee out of Spode cups every morning. Thanks for sharing. Cheers Ron and Dovie
I am obsessed with art supplies (just placed another huge order today from Dick Blick here in the U.S.) the same way you are obsessed with SPODE CHINA! I always enjoy your Spode China videos, and I was so, so happy to see your Woodland collection again. It is so lovely! The tour was enjoyable too, and the prices were so reasonable for such beautiful, elegant pieces. I hope you find a replacement for your broken top easily, and I can't believe we are down to 4 weeks to your kitchen renovation. What a dream come true for you and Joerg. It will just be a short inconvenience to a heavenly new kitchen and laundry room. All the new treasures you have purchased for the kitchen will have found their perfect placement in their new space perfectly designed by you both. Looking forward to the renovation and will see you in the next video! Have a lovely time until then and may the renovation run smoother than you even imagined.
Oh how lovely to hear! Yes, the prices in the museum shop are amazing and you find such wonderful gifts too. Thank you so much - we are so exciting but are also dreading the chaos.
I grew up not far from the potteries & my mum loved ceramics so I am familiar with all the "names" you show us. What you have highlighted here & what I'm sure many people don't realise is that you don't actually need to spend a fortune to get nice pieces - it doesn't even matter if you buy "slight seconds" or end of lines - if you like it & will use it, buy it! You don't need to concentrate on buying whole dinner services including things like huge soup tureens you will rarely use, put in a cabinet gathering dust...cups & plates that you use every day can make drinking a simple cup of tea or eating a humble sandwich feel like a luxury.
Ooh what lovely things! I need to go there for a good rummage. My Mum had a load of blue and white Spode, but I didn’t realise that there were so many colourful designs as well. Thanks for a great video as always
Call how I love love love love love love love this video what a dream to be able to shop at the Spode gift shop. I saw so many things I would just love to have and the prices were so wonderful. I just sent for a new teapot and it was almost three times the price of one of the ones you showed the $8 one I think and it was beautiful more beautiful than the one I paid more money for. You are blessed to live in such a country blessings and love from New Mexico
Hello Kirsten and Joerg, Thank you for the tour of the Spode Museum. You purchased some lovely treasures. I'm so looking forward to your new kitchen. I believe you are both so excited. Have a wonderful week. Take care. ❤
So wundervoll, dieses beeindruckende Geschirr und Ihre beruhigenden Erläuterungen. Sie sind eben Balsam für meine Seele und ich bin absolut gespannt auf ihr Küchenprojekt. Wie ich Sie und Ihren Geschmack mittlerweile kennenlernen durfte, wird das ein volles Vergnügen! Herzlichste Herbstgrüße, auch an Ihren Mann❤
This was a very enjoyable little excursion 😊. I loved the green and golden combination - but actually all of them were very pretty and nostalgic - and, to be honest, surprisingly affordable!
So glad you enjoyed it! I know, you find such treasures at amazing prices - can't recommend this place any more highly. Such a lovely experience with the vintage music as a background too.
Love your Spode . I’m I’m Australia and have inherited about 8 pieces of Spode from a dear old friend. I have no idea of the value but I love every piece . My friend was a massive collector of china and once had his own antique shop , cheers, Jennifer ,
Hi Kirsten and Jorge, I love when you visit Spode. It is all so beautiful. I personally own the Blue Italian. I think the patterns from the 1800s, peasant ware, would fit into what Americans call Cottage design. Love it! I’m excited for you to have a new kitchen. Thank you for taking us along!
Hello, I am a fairly new subscriber to your channel and have been binge watching your videos! Am in love with you two, you remind me of my husband and I. We are similar age and also do not have children because we were not able to. I wish my husband was more like yours tho. Mine likes planes, cars etc too much and not antique shopping and decorating much😢. I also love England and enjoy seeing it through your eyes. Thank you for your lovely videos. Love from Australia ❤
@ROSIEMOODY-b8g We have which is why we especially linked our ‘China & Pottery Playlist’ in the info box below this video but here’s the link for Emma Bridgwater for you filmed in the shop and cafe as one is usually not allowed to film in the factory itself): th-cam.com/video/Y2bFnWLuzvk/w-d-xo.htmlsi=kkXFsCi-mJzGQBpV
Merci a tous deux , Kristen and Joerg , pour ce merveilleux voyage au coeur de ces editions de collection aux couleurs atemporelles ... Vous avez de merveilleuses pieces , tres bien choisies , et tres inspirantes , dans votre cuisine ... Bien a vous 💜🙏🌹
Yay! Today's the day I knew I could absolutely sit with a cup of tea and watch your beautiful video without interruption. It often takes me some time to get through your videos because I like to pause and enlarge to really study things. So, it seems I'm always a few days behind viewing. They're too good to be rushed! I, too, have an obsession with china - especially old English transferware. But not JUST transferware. Your video did NOT disappoint! I ooh'd my way through and the screen on my phone is COVERED in fingerprints from "touching" each piece. What a magnificent place! Even the details on the windows, evident when you showed the archives, are exquisite. I remember when Spode released their collection of Blue Room plates - a set of 6 dinner plates, each an historic blue and white pattern - in the early 1990s. I wanted them so badly, but had just redone my dining room and they wouldn't have gone well there. And I didn't have another space for them. They added other sets to the collection, too, and added other decorative pieces like the one you bought that's marked "Blue Room". Woodland is one of my favorite patterns! I was so excited that you own some. Love the brown and white transfer patterns and the woodland animals are so beautifully done. The fish have been a favorite of mine for years. They're so delicately drawn and colored. Thank you so much for the most enjoyable video! Now I'm off to check out your playlist!
I'm so incredibly happy that you like it, thank you so very much! Oh wow, you love the woodland pattern too? The fish is my fave as well? This is so lovely to hear. Wishing you a lovely lovely evening.
Thank you for taking us to the Spode Museum! We love antiques like these! So beautiful! It would be great to go there. Fantastic purchases the two of you made as well, useful and beautiful! Looking forward to seeing them in your new kitchen. How exciting! 😄❤
As always, great video! It was nice to see the Life Guards stepping up and controlling the Horses boundaries. It's actually for their safety as well as the Horses. Good job Troopers! Thank you John, for spending your free time entertaining us as well as educating us. You're truly a Gent!
I cannot believe we have the same taste in porcelain! Everything you picked up I loved. I would go crazy in the Spode shop. I already have several pieces in blue and white, and other designs. I’m a porcelain fanatic! Lol! Lucky you for being able to purchase pieces for your new kitchen. I can’t wait to see it!! Always love your videos, Kirsten and Joerg! Thanks.❤
My mother-in-law gave me her Spode Billingsly Rose china which was my husband’s parents wedding gifts, I’ve used them for special occasions and holidays during the 53 years of our marriage. I’ve received so many compliments from guests about the china. I want my granddaughter to have them.
Wonderful stories! Write for your granddaughter, small stories linked to these china,,it is really a treasure to have things that has been in the family for so long
Oh, dear... I sometimes think, that I must have been a Lady of some grand house in an earlier life...😂 Because I love all kinds of antiques, beautiful porcelain and grand, old houses...😂 And I do actually collect both porcelain and antiques. The grand house - well... They are sadly not within reach at the moment... 😂 I really love blue and white! But I certainly also see the charm of some of the more coloured patterns... Its probably for the best, that I don't live anywhere near that Spode museum... 😂
My mom had this blue n white dish set. In America its called the colonial set n the supermarkets use to hive them away if you reached a certain amount total of food. 1 week were dishes the next week cups n so on. I love the pattern. Thank you Kirsten n Joerg for the tour i learned alot. I cannot wait to see your new kitchen when its done. I love the blue n white utensil jar how 😍 ❤
Hi Kirsten and Joerg what a beautiful place Spode Museum is all those wonderful ceramics. I honestly wouldn't know what to buy it's all so beautiful. Can't wait to see your new kitchen. Thanks Kirsten and Jorge ❤️❤️
Can’t wait to see your new kitchen!!!!!! 🫖☕️🧁
Thanks so much - we are getting so excited too!
Auf die neue Küche bin ich auch gespannt😊...Danke für das interessante Video...da kann man viel Zeit verbringen. LG Margot
Yes!!! I've been waiting to see the new kitchen!
Me too ❤
With all the calamity going on in the world, I needed a good dose of K & J❤❤❤
Thanks so much!
Me too and, praises be, I got it!
Life is just too short, so these beautiful ceramic items should be enjoyed often, not just for the special occasions. I'm sure they would bring a smile to your face every time you see them. I have a small Christmas collection from Villeroy & Boch, and they bring so much inner joy to me, every time I see them. They keep me company from the first day of Advent all the way to Epiphany. I keep them in a glass cupboard and that way I can still enjoy in their beauty all year round. 😊
It's so true! We were talking to Michael (he runs the Spode Museum) and Eve and they said the very same. It makes such a difference to use pretty china every single day. I love the V&B Christmas collection, they always bring out such lovely items.
@@KirstenJoerg Yes, somehow tea or coffee tastes better when you drink it from a beautiful cup. It certainly puts a smile on my face.

Thank you so much Linda!
Dear Kirsten and Jorg,
Thank you for the lovely video. Such a treat to view the beautiful dishes.
Thank you!
I like the blue and white plates because they tell a story of days gone by they are very special.
All your videos are wonderful, but I do love your videos where you go and show museums, shops, and factories with ceramics. Your herbs containers are beautiful. ❤
Thank you so much, that's so kind!
I so wish I could go there but I love living vicariously thru you & Joerg
Hi Kirsten and Joerg ! .Love your haul for your future new kitchen and the antique shop is wonderful ! .Thank's for sharing !

Oh this is so so wonderful to hear!!!
You really do have a treasure. What a wonderful gift from your Grampa,
I agree..it was really a wonderful gift! There is one complete with "Bridal Rose" on Etsy but unfortunately it's too expensive for my pocket 😮💨
It will remain a dream in the drawer for now and tomorrow...who knows😊

All of that blue and white china is visual bliss. Very calming.
I love spode. Thank you so much Kirsten and Joerg for sharing this Wonder tour of spode. So gorgeous. ❤❤❤
These dishes bring back wonderful memories of my great-grandmother. She couldn't afford Spode, but she had blue and white dishes. I believe they were Johnson Brothers Willow Blue. She brought them over from England to America in 1906. Thank you for the video. ❤

What a lot of gorgeous things. They are really beautifully made. 💕
So glad you like it!
What a great place to look and shop. Just gorgeous. I love your little fox pin!
Thanks so much!
You are so observant Cindy!! 🤗 I had to go back and look for the cute little fox! 🦊
I love the Autumn colours you are wearing Kirsten and Joerg with the cap😊😊😊
Thank you!
Thanks Kirsten & Joerg! A visit to Spode is a real treat! There are too many beautiful ceramics that I would never be able to choose a favourite pattern. I love them all! Again, thanks for the tour of the museum, the shop, and your personal treasures.
I know, it's so hard to choose - I really love sharing it on our channel.
Thank you, Kirsten and Joerg. Such a beauty and elegance.Love the blue pottery and the vibrant pink and so on.
I like the dress you wore at the museum. What a lovely video seeing all the beautiful dishes. I am glad you changed your mind and bought the utensil container. It will last you your life and still live on after so that is not expensive.
I would need a truck to get all my treasures home!!!!! Love seeing these beautiful pieces of art. 💙💙💙
Haha I know it’s so hard as there are so many gorgeous pieces.
Thank you for taking me to see the beautiful and varied items at Spode; I truly enjoyed it!
I also liked your private museum with the Woodland collection.
Thanks so much! Which museum with the private Woodland collection do you mean? I’m a little bit confused?
I would be in heaven going to that place.. I love all things Spode and have quite a few pieces and as I have a country kitchen the blue and white crockery looks fabulous.

You are so welcome!
As someone who has lots of spode am so thrilled to have found u. U have made my day. Xxx
Oh thank you so so much!🙏
It is a pleasure spending time with you and joerg it has always been fun and I'll see you next time
Thanks so much!
From the USA. I just love all of the British Spode ceramics you selected and showed sat the Spode Museum.
I think we are able to call Spode English as it is a very English brand, originating in the Potteries area of the Midlands.
Love it when you do videos about ceramics
This was a great video. I loved every minute of it. Of course I love shopping and the shops in the UK are phenomenal. Thanks once again for taking me along and brightening my day.

Oh no never. Spode Blue Italian is gorgeous!
Stunning china..loved the piece with the cow lid..love it ☘️❤️
Me too - I think it was my favourite piece - the colours, the cow! Perfection!

Every bit of this was fascinating! Those copper plates are art in themselves. I was delighted to "explore" the shop with you, and am looking forward to the new kitchen! Exciting❤❤😊 Love, Liz in Essex, Connecticut
Thank you so much! I know, the copper plates are amazing - it makes you speechless.
Michael was very interesting, great video
So glad you like it, thanks so much!
😊😊I loved all your choices of china patterns.Colourful,delicate and charming.
Hello Kirsten & Joerg. Dovie loves your videos about pottery/ ceramics. We especially like the wildlife scenes. We both like pheasants. We just found two silver pheasant table decorations. We drink our coffee out of Spode cups every morning. Thanks for sharing. Cheers Ron and Dovie
Oh this is so wonderful to hear, thank you so much! I love the sound of you silver pheasant table decorations. Sending lots of love.
I am obsessed with art supplies (just placed another huge order today from Dick Blick here in the U.S.) the same way you are obsessed with SPODE CHINA! I always enjoy your Spode China videos, and I was so, so happy to see your Woodland collection again. It is so lovely! The tour was enjoyable too, and the prices were so reasonable for such beautiful, elegant pieces. I hope you find a replacement for your broken top easily, and I can't believe we are down to 4 weeks to your kitchen renovation. What a dream come true for you and Joerg. It will just be a short inconvenience to a heavenly new kitchen and laundry room. All the new treasures you have purchased for the kitchen will have found their perfect placement in their new space perfectly designed by you both. Looking forward to the renovation and will see you in the next video! Have a lovely time until then and may the renovation run smoother than you even imagined.
Oh how lovely to hear! Yes, the prices in the museum shop are amazing and you find such wonderful gifts too. Thank you so much - we are so exciting but are also dreading the chaos.
SALUDOS HANSEL Y GRETEL... ES UN VERDADERO PLACER VOLVERLOS A VER !!! MAGNIFICA COLECCION. GRACIAS!!!!! 👌❤️❤️❤️❤️
I grew up not far from the potteries & my mum loved ceramics so I am familiar with all the "names" you show us. What you have highlighted here & what I'm sure many people don't realise is that you don't actually need to spend a fortune to get nice pieces - it doesn't even matter if you buy "slight seconds" or end of lines - if you like it & will use it, buy it! You don't need to concentrate on buying whole dinner services including things like huge soup tureens you will rarely use, put in a cabinet gathering dust...cups & plates that you use every day can make drinking a simple cup of tea or eating a humble sandwich feel like a luxury.
We so agree which is why we always go to Burleigh to buy seconds and we love them.
Ooh what lovely things! I need to go there for a good rummage. My Mum had a load of blue and white Spode, but I didn’t realise that there were so many colourful designs as well. Thanks for a great video as always
Thank you so, so much. Loved it!
You are such great ambassadors for British products! Oh and your hair looks lovely too Kirsten, if you don't mind me saying so?
Thanks so much!
Watching your sweet and soothing videos is just what I need now. You two are the best.
Thank you so so much!
Call how I love love love love love love love this video what a dream to be able to shop at the Spode gift shop. I saw so many things I would just love to have and the prices were so wonderful. I just sent for a new teapot and it was almost three times the price of one of the ones you showed the $8 one I think and it was beautiful more beautiful than the one I paid more money for. You are blessed to live in such a country blessings and love from New Mexico
Thanks so much! I know, the prices for the vintage and antique Spode China are amazing.
Hello Kirsten and Joerg, Thank you for the tour of the Spode Museum. You purchased some lovely treasures. I'm so looking forward to your new kitchen. I believe you are both so excited. Have a wonderful week. Take care. ❤
Thank you so so much! Have a lovely rest of the week too.
Spode ' have Gorgeous Designs....😊
I have an absolute passion for blue and white china too 💙🤍. Thank you for showing us the blue room 💙! It’s all so heavenly!
Yay, I'm so happy to hear that!
@@KirstenJoerg 💙💙💙
So wundervoll, dieses beeindruckende Geschirr und Ihre beruhigenden Erläuterungen. Sie sind eben Balsam für meine Seele und ich bin absolut gespannt auf ihr Küchenprojekt. Wie ich Sie und Ihren Geschmack mittlerweile kennenlernen durfte, wird das ein volles Vergnügen! Herzlichste Herbstgrüße, auch an Ihren Mann❤
Das ist so lieb, vielen herzlichen Dank! Wir sind auch ganz gespannt. Ganz ganz liebe Grüße
This was a very enjoyable little excursion 😊. I loved the green and golden combination - but actually all of them were very pretty and nostalgic - and, to be honest, surprisingly affordable!
So glad you enjoyed it! I know, you find such treasures at amazing prices - can't recommend this place any more highly. Such a lovely experience with the vintage music as a background too.
Обожаю ваши видео, и этот чарующий голос прелестной феи!!❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks so much!
@@KirstenJoerg 🤗🤗🤗
Kirsten, I share your love of china and especially Spode. Thank you so much for this wonderful tour of the museum. What a treat!
Thanks so much Laura!
Love your Spode . I’m I’m Australia and have inherited about 8 pieces of Spode from a dear old friend. I have no idea of the value but I love every piece . My friend was a massive collector of china and once had his own antique shop , cheers, Jennifer

Hi Kirsten and Jorge, I love when you visit Spode. It is all so beautiful. I personally own the Blue Italian. I think the patterns from the 1800s, peasant ware, would fit into what Americans call Cottage design. Love it! I’m excited for you to have a new kitchen. Thank you for taking us along!
Thank you so much! We are so excited too but also dread the chaos and dirt but we will get there I'm sure.
Hello, I am a fairly new subscriber to your channel and have been binge watching your videos! Am in love with you two, you remind me of my husband and I. We are similar age and also do not have children because we were not able to. I wish my husband was more like yours tho. Mine likes planes, cars etc too much and not antique shopping and decorating much😢. I also love England and enjoy seeing it through your eyes. Thank you for your lovely videos. Love from Australia ❤
Oh you are so so kind, thank you so much!
@@KirstenJoerg Just wondering if you have ever been to the Emma Bridgewater factory? That would be so interesting
@ROSIEMOODY-b8g We have which is why we especially linked our ‘China & Pottery Playlist’ in the info box below this video but here’s the link for Emma Bridgwater for you filmed in the shop and cafe as one is usually not allowed to film in the factory itself): th-cam.com/video/Y2bFnWLuzvk/w-d-xo.htmlsi=kkXFsCi-mJzGQBpV
@@KirstenJoerg oh thank u so much can’t wait to watch that
Merci a tous deux , Kristen and Joerg , pour ce merveilleux voyage au coeur de ces editions de collection aux couleurs atemporelles ...
Vous avez de merveilleuses pieces , tres bien choisies , et tres inspirantes , dans votre cuisine ...
Bien a vous 💜🙏🌹
Yay! Today's the day I knew I could absolutely sit with a cup of tea and watch your beautiful video without interruption. It often takes me some time to get through your videos because I like to pause and enlarge to really study things. So, it seems I'm always a few days behind viewing. They're too good to be rushed!
I, too, have an obsession with china - especially old English transferware. But not JUST transferware. Your video did NOT disappoint! I ooh'd my way through and the screen on my phone is COVERED in fingerprints from "touching" each piece. What a magnificent place! Even the details on the windows, evident when you showed the archives, are exquisite.
I remember when Spode released their collection of Blue Room plates - a set of 6 dinner plates, each an historic blue and white pattern - in the early 1990s. I wanted them so badly, but had just redone my dining room and they wouldn't have gone well there. And I didn't have another space for them. They added other sets to the collection, too, and added other decorative pieces like the one you bought that's marked "Blue Room".
Woodland is one of my favorite patterns! I was so excited that you own some. Love the brown and white transfer patterns and the woodland animals are so beautifully done. The fish have been a favorite of mine for years. They're so delicately drawn and colored.
Thank you so much for the most enjoyable video! Now I'm off to check out your playlist!
I'm so incredibly happy that you like it, thank you so very much! Oh wow, you love the woodland pattern too? The fish is my fave as well? This is so lovely to hear. Wishing you a lovely lovely evening.
@@KirstenJoerg
Thank you! I'd wish you a lovely evening, as well, but too late for that! 😂 I'll wish you a lovely week instead. ❤
Thank you for taking us to the Spode Museum! We love antiques like these! So beautiful! It would be great to go there. Fantastic purchases the two of you made as well, useful and beautiful! Looking forward to seeing them in your new kitchen. How exciting! 😄❤
Thank you!
I just found your videos and love your passion for cozy cottage life, recipes and style. I find myself smiling as i watch you two- thank you 🙏 🎉
Thank you so much!
ME ENCANTAN SUS VÍDEOS. SALUDOS Y FELICIDADES.👏👏👏👏👏
Thanks so much!
I'm obsessed with China too,I've been creating a four act Ballet about Wedgwood for years!!
OMG really?
Kristen can't wait to see ❤the new kitchen.
Thank you! Getting so nervous because of all the chaos here but we will get there I'm sure.
Oh I love Spode just like you! ❤ Thank you for this video!
Your old kitchen is beautiful. I am excited to see your new one. ❤
Thank you! We like it too but a lot of things fall apart and are very unpractical.
Hallo,ihr Lieben! Freu mich riesig auf eure neue Küche! 😌🤗🤩liebste Grüße von Iris 🙋♀️👋😘
Dankeschön 🤗 Ganz liebe Grüße
Beautiful China. I’m looking forward to seeing your new kitchen. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you! 🤗
As always, great video! It was nice to see the Life Guards stepping up and controlling the Horses boundaries. It's actually for their safety as well as the Horses. Good job Troopers! Thank you John, for spending your free time entertaining us as well as educating us. You're truly a Gent!
Oh I think you must have commented on the wrong channel?
Thanks for sharing the Spode Museum. So lovely. Love your Spode collection.❤
You are so welcome!
I cannot believe we have the same taste in porcelain! Everything you picked up I loved. I would go crazy in the Spode shop. I already have several pieces in blue and white, and other designs. I’m a porcelain fanatic! Lol!
Lucky you for being able to purchase pieces for your new kitchen. I can’t wait to see it!!
Always love your videos, Kirsten and Joerg! Thanks.❤
Oh how wonderful to hear, thanks so much Carolyn!
Lovely trip to Spode! Can’t wait to see your new kitchen! Thank you! ❤️🇨🇦
Thank you so much!
My mother-in-law gave me her Spode Billingsly Rose china which was my husband’s parents wedding gifts, I’ve used them for special occasions and holidays during the 53 years of our marriage. I’ve received so many compliments from guests about the china. I want my granddaughter to have them.
Wonderful stories! Write for your granddaughter, small stories linked to these china,,it is really a treasure to have things that has been in the family for so long
Oh, dear... I sometimes think, that I must have been a Lady of some grand house in an earlier life...😂 Because I love all kinds of antiques, beautiful porcelain and grand, old houses...😂 And I do actually collect both porcelain and antiques. The grand house - well... They are sadly not within reach at the moment... 😂 I really love blue and white! But I certainly also see the charm of some of the more coloured patterns... Its probably for the best, that I don't live anywhere near that Spode museum... 😂
Loved all the vibrant colors china . Fantastic video . Thank you 🙏🏼🌹🩷
Thanks so much!
My mom had this blue n white dish set. In America its called the colonial set n the supermarkets use to hive them away if you reached a certain amount total of food. 1 week were dishes the next week cups n so on. I love the pattern. Thank you Kirsten n Joerg for the tour i learned alot. I cannot wait to see your new kitchen when its done. I love the blue n white utensil jar how 😍 ❤
Oh wow!
Wow, amazing patterns. This was so much fun. ☕️
Thank you! 😊
All lovely, but the blue and white still my favorite. 🎉
Spode Wickerdale and Francis I sterling were our everyday table setting growing up. ❤
I just LOVE this so much!
Spode was our visitors set, at my elderly relatives.
