Marks & Spencer "Rocco"

Marks & Spencer Rocco is a discontinued white porcelain tableware range dating from around 2011. Rather than relying on printed decoration or coloured edging, Rocco uses simple contemporary shapes and subtle embossed rings to give the otherwise plain white pieces a little extra definition.

The restrained design gives Rocco a particularly versatile appearance. The moulded detailing is deliberately understated, allowing the shape of each piece to do much of the work, while the glossy white finish keeps the range looking fresh and uncluttered.

The rounded teapot is a good example of the style, with its broad curved body, low lid and cleanly shaped handle and spout complemented by fine concentric ring detail towards the base. Plates, bowls and tea wares carry the same simple white treatment, creating a coordinated service without heavy decoration.

Rocco was produced across a practical selection of dinner and tea ware, with known pieces including dinner and salad plates, cereal and pasta bowls, tea cups and saucers, mugs, a serving platter and teapot.

As Marks & Spencer Rocco is now discontinued, replacement pieces are generally found through the pre-loved market. At MrPottery we organise our available stock by piece and condition to help you find the best possible match for an existing service.
