This is the pattern I've been telling Mr Modtomic & Nickarmadillo (MCMidwest) about and now I can't get it out of my head (must be OCD). I keep referring to it wrong, It's "Broadhurst Ironstone w/designs by Kathie Winkle" this pattern is called "Rushtone" circa 1965. This image is a set that is posted on KIJIJI (Canadian classified kind of a combo of E-bay & Craigslist) it's 38pcs for $60 located in B.C. I've spotted the large platter and large bowl both in the center of this pic at a local thrift shop for $7 pair. Kathie Winkle did some floral patterns in a modern theme but it's the geometric I find appealing.....And last night I spotted 18pcs of Russel Wright Oneida China 11 dinner plates and 7 sandwich plates for around $36, they were all the same a deep brown with a lighter brown around the edge kind like a stone crock look. I didn't find it that appealing, kind of blah.
That's a really cool pattern! I think $60 is a pretty good price for that many pieces. I looked forward to seeing the Oneida Russel Wright reissue, but I was pretty disappointed when it came out. Evidently other people were too, because I don't think it went over particularly well. I have service for 24 and lots of serving pieces of Russel Wright Iroquois Casual in avocado yellow and ripe apricot, and I use it every day.
ReplyDeleteHi Dana, I'm liking this set and a few others Kathie Winkle designed, I just don't really have much need for them. It's more of a want that would probably never get used for fear of chipping or breaking. The Russel Wright was kind of a disappointment, I`ve seen single large plates or platters before that were much nicer.
