The Spisa Ribb series is once again manufactured at Gustavsberg since 2003. It is now only made of bone china according to the area's long-standing pottery tradition. Each object is fired in a kiln three times which results in a solid tableware that is both dishwasher and microwave safe. A portion of the proceeds from every object sold goes to finance new exhibitions at the Gustavsberg's Porcelain Museum.
