Franciscan Ware's 
Starburst


Franciscan "Starburst" pattern was introduced in 1954; a smooth, decal-pattern design, as opposed to a raised, hand-painted pattern. With the prosperity that came after World War 2, consumers were ready for something new. The futuristic starry design on Franciscan Starburst fit in well ​with a new chrome kitchen and modern appliances.

​The pattern was designed by George James and was placed on the Eclipse dish shape. Starburst shares this futuristic dish shape with two other Franciscan designs of the 1950's: "Duet" and "Oasis."
