November's Monthly Dish features the rustic and beautiful Spode Woodland pattern. A perfect fit for the fall and Thanksgiving season, Spode Woodland designs are rooted in the traditions of hunting for game and its elaborate presentation on the table. Central to the charm of the pattern are the striking studies of different animals framed by the British Flowers border which dates back to 1831.

In collaboration with National Geographic, Mottahedeh has recently release the new pattern called "SNOWFLAKE"!

Did you know the piggy bank originated from the 15th century?



In Europe, in the 15th century, nearly all house wares and other household items made from pottery were made out of orange clay called Pygg Clay.
