Editorial Reviews:
Amazon.com Review Since first introduced in 1941, Franciscan's charming Desert Rose pattern has sold more dinnerware than any other pattern in American History. Appealing to a broad range of people--Jacqueline Kennedy among them, this line features flowers and leaves in muted pinks and greens on an almond background. The floral motif encircles the platter in a style resembling hand-painted artistry and finishes at the plate's scalloped rim with vine-like markings. Measuring 10-1/4 by 14 inches, the oval piece comfortably serves a broad assortment of vegetables, two dozen cookies, or enough bruschetta to feed a group of eight. With glossy, chip-resistant surfaces, the durable earthenware adequately handles the demands of today's household kitchens while also maintaining an attractive appearance. Every Desert Rose piece is dishwasher-, freezer-, and microwave-safe. For those who prefer a highly coordinated table, a broad selection of matching dinnerware and serving pieces are available for purchase. -- Amy Arnold
Product Description Inspired by the sun-drenched beauty of the Southwest, Franciscan's Desert Rose dinnerware is a classic for everyday enjoyment. This lovely serving platter brightens any table with a shower of rose petals.
