Vintage Cunningham & Pickett Norway Rose Dessert Plates - Set of Three - Georgian Eggshell Shape
It is good to rub and polish our brain against that of others. Michel de Montaigne
{HISTORY}
Every time we run across the Norway Rose pattern, here in the Vintage Kitchen, it reminds us of an elegant ladies luncheon or a summer morning brunch or a club meeting where important decisions of the day get made in a feminine and intelligent way.Ā
Made between the 1940s and 1960s, this trio of Cunningham & Pickett dessert plates features the elegant Norway Rose pattern, which is comprised of six complimentary shades of grey, pink and ivory.Ā Stamped on the back with the C & P mark as well as the pattern name, many dish lovers assume this pattern was made by Cunningham & Pickett in Alliance Ohio, but actually it was made by Homer Laughlin in West Virginia.
Cunningham & Pickett was actually a distributor of dishes, not a maker. It was not unusual for distributors and makers to add both their marks to the backs of various dish patterns and shapes.Ā A two-step level of branding, this can be a little bit confusing for dish buyers but a fun detail for collectors as you can discover lots of interesting double-stamped dishes.
In the case of these three dessert plates, The Norway Rose pattern has been placed on Homer Laughlin's Cavalier shape in combination with their thin, porcelain-like Georgian Eggshell body which features a delicate embossed beading that runs around the rim.Ā These refined details of rose and dotted rim bring all sorts of feminine charm to the dessert table and the day, making meals memorable whatever the discussion.Ā
