Antique Gold & White Hudson Soup Bowls by Homer Laughlin - Set of Four circa 1908-1928

{HISTORY}

Made between 1908-1928, these antique soup bowls were made by Homer Laughlin between 1908-1928. Featuring shimmery gold trim, an embossed edge and a scalloped shape, they were part of the Hudson series, the first shape design in H.L.'s history to be in continuous production for more than two decades.

The Hudson series is very fun when it comes to collecting because it came in both simple gold and white motifs as well as decorated florals. Sometimes, they also combined the gold trim with a floral pattern too. We've seen the Hudson pattern in all three arrangements, including a monogrammed set with gold florals and laurel wreaths.  

Sized at 9" inches in diameter and containing a classic gold and white color palette, these bowls are ideal for year round serving purposes as well as display. All foods look great against a bright white background, so whether you are serving up a spring green onion soup, a summery gazpacho, a colorful pumpkin bisque or a hearty bowl of winter chili, these four will brighten up the table with something delightfully delicious. 

The king of American potteries, Homer Laughlin has been manufacturing dishware since 1871. We always like to say that they have a pattern for every person, thanks to their prolific output and their innate ability to understand the style and aesthetic that American buyers loved best. This pattern wasn't given one of their fanciful names - instead, it's known only as H-94. That being said, it's made up of a gold scroll design that mirrors ocean waves as they crash against the shore.
