California Strawberry
Dinnerware & Accessories
California Strawberry was introduced in 1961 in the Traditional shape, a studio potter's effect with the addition of a raised ring pattern on the interior edge of bowls & serving pieces. Vine handles & finials added a decorator's touch. A strawberry vine design decorated the flatware & bowls with solid avocado green hallowware. Strawberry fruit, flower, and leaf clusters served as lid finials. The design was accented with a rich, vivid red, one of the most challenging colors to reproduce in earthenware.
Strawberry Accessories was created in the early 1960's as a complimentary artware line. Items were realistically designed strawberry and leaf shapes in vivid red and avocado green. A selenium red color glaze, inspired by Chinese oxblood red, was used. A second series of Strawberry Accessories was issued in the early 1980's to compliment Wicker Strawberry pattern. The pieces were painted white with a lighter shade of green.
