Amazon.com Review
A true American classic, Franciscan Desert Rose dinnerware has graced dining tables since 1941, including Air Force One as chosen by Jackie Kennedy and the Presidential yacht during the Nixon administration. The pattern is as simply endearing as it is famous-softly painted pink roses bloom amidst deep green leaves and natural brown branches in a gracious, hand-painted style. Named after Southwest missions and the wild Rose Rogusa, the lovely design conveys a uniquely American sense of tradition and place. This 9-inch round vegetable bowl features the collection's almond glaze on a generous round shape that curves out at its wide rim. A border of flowers and leaves spill over the interior sides, framed by a wandering vine tracing the upper edge. Filled with garden greens or pasta primavera, the look is relaxed and inviting, so it's perfectly suited to for everyday enjoyment as well as cozy special occasions. The naturally durable, chip-resistant earthenware bowl also goes safely into the dishwasher, microwave, and freezer. This piece makes an especially versatile addition to a fully coordinated Desert Rose decor. --Kara Karll
