Nobody has ever measured, not even poets, how much the heart can hold. Zelda Fitzgerald
{HISTORY}
As America's most prolific dishware manufacturer, Homer Laughlin, knows a thing or two about designing dishware to suit customers' decorative interests. They created thousands and thousands of dish patterns throughout the 20th century that were made to withstand the test of time and taste.
This antique serving bowl was made at Homer Laughlin's Newell, West Virginia factory in February 1926. A romantic dish for a romantic month, it features a pink rose bouquet and a spring green lustreware rim that is so shiny and reflective it practically acts as a mirror.
Full of cottage charm and bright color, this shiny bowl contains the most beautiful color arrangement of dynamic shades. You might just want to design your whole kitchen around this color palette!
{SPECIAL FEATURES}
- Colors include spring green, brick, butter, blueberry, bright white, celery and pale salmon
