VERNONWARE ~ Vintage 13" Oval SERVING PLATTER (Heyday) ~ USA

Description of item...

Here we have a beautiful vintage earthenware/glazed pottery oval SERVING PLATTER made by VERNONWARE (Metlox, Poppytrail) of California, USA in the "Heyday" pattern displaying a speckled tan background with a center design of circles in dark green and brown.

It measures approx. 13" long x 9-3/4" wide x 1-1/2" side high.

It is in excellent maintained (lightly/barely used) condition with no chips or cracks, no crazing, no damage noted. The bottom is faintly marked, "UNDER GLAZE ~ HAND DECORATED ~ Heyday ~ VERNONWARE ~ CALIFORNIA-U.S.A."

Came from a well cared for private home of many years, however the exact age is unknown, pattern discontinued, production run 1954-1958. This item weighs approx. 2 lb., add 2-1/2 lbs. or so for the packing box and packing material. I combine shipping when safe and practical for all items purchased

Payment and shipping...

NOTE: I will be revising, adding and/or changing my SHIPPING INFORMATION as eBay and the Post Office revise or change their information to better serve you. I will use USPS FLAT RATE boxes when I find it cheaper to use than regular USPS Priority Mail boxes or other generic boxes. INTERNATIONAL WINNERS - Please wait for the Invoice to be sent to you by me, and I will use USPS International Rates (AIR only, no more SURFACE shipping by USPS - discontinued.) I will be using UPS for shipping heavier items (usually over 5 lbs., cheaper than USPS rates - or larger boxes over 12" long/36" in total circumference - to US only.)

My short and simple auction "philosophy"...

To ALL: THANK YOU for looking, and if time permits, check out my other auctions for more interesting, unusual and unique items. I will pack the item to withstand just about anything it might encounter on its way to you, ship quickly and am always glad to combine items for you. If you have any questions, just ask.
