Here they are in more detail -
In 1998 the First of the series was the British Santa
In 1999 Spode released the German Santa, which is one of the two I have missing and am still seeking.
In 2000 Bishop of Myra was released.
Then in 2001, The Russian Santa was release, the second one that I am missing from the set.
In 2002 The Norwegian Santa made an appearance
And finally, in 2004 to complete the series, the American Santa was released.
I think of all the set that I currently have my favourite is the American Santa, because of the vibrant, festive colours. Which one is your favourite?

What a lovely set of Christmas mugs! I like the Pere Noel and the American best, I think although the Brisith one appeals to me too. I hope you can find the ones you don't have yet. Thanks so much for sharing these with us at Tea Time and A Happy Christmas to you and your loved ones.

What a wonderful collection that is. My favorite would be Pere Noel, not only is he French, he has a basket by his side. Two of my favorite things!
ReplyDeleteOh this is a lovely series of Santas! Spode does design really beautiful china.
