picked these guys up last week. the shape of them looks like my riviera dishes but are called "century", and they have the homer laughlin backstamp. they are 9 inch plates from the early 1930s in the briar rose design. these are not my thing, but i got them at a great price and will try to resell. surprisingly they are in great shape! as with the riviera they are much lighter and tend to chip easily, but only 1 dish has a chip on it, makes me wonder if this was someone's formal dishes and not used as often?
but my more exciting (to me) find of the day was a white fiesta hostess tray. i can use my fruit bowls for the center. or they would make a good veggie dip or charcuterie board. i think white fiesta is totally underrated. as much as i love the bright colors, i think the white is so pretty. i regret selling the white bowls i found a while back. but i love this tray in white so i can add and mix up colors with the bowl. this style tray was only produced from 1997-2007, so it is a retired piece, a fun find for sure!
