Vintage 1952 PINK 10" long Oval VEGITABLE DISH T S&T China Pottery MCM BRIGHT

Description

THE LU-RAY POTTERY COMPANY PRODUCED THESE ORIGINAL KITCHEN WARE FROM 1938 TO 1954.  DURING WORLD WAR II IT WAS ONE OF THE FEW COMPANIES THAT CONTINUED TO PRODUCE FOR THE HOME MARKET SALES AND THAT IS ONE REASON A LOT OF GRAND PARENTS HAD IT AND CHERISHED IT.
PINK OVAL SERVING BOWL IN GREAT CONDITION.
DURING A TERRIBLE WAR THIS COMPANY PRODUCED BRIGHT AND FUN COLORS TO MIX AND MATCH.  SO IT WAS PERFECTLY ACCEPTABLE TO SET A TABLE WITH DIFFERENT COLORS OF PLATE WARE.
THESE ARE FROM A HOME IN MIAMI WRAPPED IN 1962 AND JUST NOW OUT TO ENJOY USE AGAIN.
LU-RAY WAS A HIGH PRODUCTION COMPANY LOCATED IN WEST VIRGINIA.  THE PRODUCTION WILL ALMOST ALWAYS HAVE THREE MARKS ON THE BOTTOM FROM THE KILN THAT ARE  NOT PAINTED IN COLOR BUT GLAZED OVER.  THESE MARKS ARE USUALLY COVERED BY THE SECOND FIRE GLAZE AS ARE OTHER AREAS THAT WERE NOT ORIGINALLY COVERED BY THE COLOR IN THE FIRST FIREING.    AT TIMES THERE ARE WHITE AREAS ON THE SURFACE OF THE DISHWARE THAT ARE GLAZED OVER.  THESE ARE NOT CHIPS AND THEY ARE NOT FLEA BITES.  THEY DO ADD TO THE UNIQUE FEEL OF LU-RAY.
WE HAVE NOT EVER NOR DO WE INTEND TO EVER SELL A PRODUCT  WITH CHIPS UNLESS IT IS A RARE UNUSUAL WORK OF ART THAT SHOULD BE OFFERED.  IN THAT CASE WE LIST IT AS A CHIP WITH A PICTURE SHOWING THE CHIP.
WE SHIP FED EX AND WE DO COMBINE SHIPING WHEN POSSIBLE DUE TO COSTS OF SENDING IT TO YOU.  WE ARE LISTING SEVERAL LU-RAY FROM THE ORIGINAL ERA.  ANYTHING SHOWN IN THE PICTURES IS NOT INCLUDED EXCEPT FOR THE ITEM LISTED.
