My mother had a set of Franciscan Apple dinnerware as I was growing up, though I never thought too much about what I was eating off of at the time.Later, as a wife and mother myself, I was looking for a theme around which to decorate my kitchen.We had just moved to Appleton, WI (16 years ago) so I decided to use an "apple" theme, w/o even connecting the idea with my mom's dishes.I was frankly surprised to visit my parents and become reacquainted with the Franciscan dishes. Over the years I've collected innumerable apple items, but my goal is to have a set of Franciscan apple dishes of my own!They do chip, but they last forever and retain their color beautifully.Product Description
On the first day of January 1940, Apple was introducedas Gladding McBean's first pattern to have hand painted decoration on an embossed body.The design of the Apple collection has a red, green and brown apple decoration on a sand colored base.The apple design is in a hand-painted style of ripe red apples and green leaves with brown accents that parovide a warm sense of Fall year round.The 5 piece place setting consists of a dinner palte, salad plate, teacup and saucer and fianlly a soup/cereal bowl.
