Spal

Welcome to our Spal boutique, a porcelain manufacturer founded in 1965 in Alcobaça, Portugal. Spal Porcelanas has built its reputation on control of the full production cycle: from the designer's first sketch through to production of the fine porcelain itself. The house has become an international reference for porcelain tableware, with several international design awards to its name.

Spal's expertise

Spal relies on three pillars that it presents as the core of its identity: innovation, design and quality. This translates into a broad range of porcelain tableware, from classic collections to contemporary, graphic-shaped series.

• Fine porcelain tableware: dinner, soup, dessert plates and serving dishes
• Coupes and bowls: presentation pieces with modern design
• Mugs and cups: hard-wearing porcelain suited to everyday use
• Signature pieces recognised at international design competitions

Most popular collections on AZ Boutique

Among the Spal references available on AZ Boutique, several collections illustrate the brand's contemporary aesthetic.

• Spazio: porcelain with contemporary lines, the main collection on AZ Boutique
• Waves: porcelain with the brand's signature wave relief, an award-winning contemporary design
• Rythm: porcelain with rhythmic graphics and modern lines

Choosing Spal

What sets Spal porcelain apart?

Spal controls the entire production chain, from the designer's sketch to marketing. This vertical integration allows the brand to offer consistent collections with a strong design identity and has earned it several international distinctions, including the Design Plus award. Spal porcelain therefore combines stylistic ambition with industrial quality.

Is Spal porcelain dishwasher- and microwave-safe?

Spal porcelain is generally dishwasher- and microwave-safe, in line with fine porcelain tableware standards. Refer to the marking on the back of each piece to confirm specific usage. Avoid sudden thermal shocks (freezer to hot oven) to maximise the lifespan of the pieces.

Which Spal collection is best for a contemporary table?

The Spazio collection is among the brand's most popular contemporary references; Waves, with its wave relief on the plate rim and clean white finish, offers a complementary graphic style. Both blend easily into a modern table setting and mix well with other white porcelain without visual disruption.

How do I complete a Spal table service?

Spal collections are produced as ongoing porcelain catalogue lines, so it is generally possible to complete an existing service with individual pieces (dinner, soup, dessert plates) or matching serving dishes. The collection name (Spazio, Waves, Rythm..) appears on the product sheet and helps identify compatible pieces.
