Josiah Spode (23 March 1733 – 1797) was an English potter and the founder of the English Spode pottery works which became very famous for the quality of its wares. He is often credited with the establishment of blue underglaze transfer printing in Staffordshire in 1781-84, and with the definition and introduction in c. 1789-91 of the improved formula for soft paste bone china (a form of soft-paste porcelain) which thereafter remained the standard for all English wares of this kind.
