Editorial Reviews:
Amazon.com Review The wild rose that rambles across much of America's landscape decorates this popular 1941 dinnerware pattern. The pattern features pink roses with yellow centers and green leaves resting on a creamy background, while brown twining stems form an irregular rim on some of the pattern pieces. Hand-painted with visible brush strokes, each piece exudes its own individuality. Standing on its own as a gift or accessorizing a full range of Franciscan Desert Rose dinnerware, this 10-1/2-inch divided vegetable dish makes a versatile, everyday table addition. The two divided compartments hold any combination of vegetables, rice, potatoes, or other side dish. Seasonal candies also look festive in the plate. Named for the founders of California's historic missions, there's nothing ascetic about Franciscan ware today: the durable dish is safe for the microwave and freezer, and slips into the dishwasher for scrub-free cleaning. --Ann Bieri
