This round casserole dish was part of the Iconic Starburst dinnerware by Franciscan. In 1954, Franciscan released Starburst in keeping with the futuristic trends of the 1950's. This "Space-Age" design was part of the "Modern Americana" dinnerware promotion created by Franciscan, and the pattern includes a variety of fun, irregularly shaped designs.

The dish is made of earthenware and has a multi-color atomic starburst pattern with a glossy finish. It measures 8 3/4 inches in diameter and 4 inches in height. This original piece is perfect for decorative or functional use in any kitchen or dining room.

There is a small mark on the top of the lid.  Please see photo where it is circled in yellow so that you may see clearly.

No chips or cracks noted.
