Customer Review: Apple Butter!
Summary: 5 Stars
This Franciscan Apple Dinnerware Covered Butter Dish is another of the lovely "open stock" items in this handpainted china pattern. The little apple knob on top of this butter dish is a new design that has been created since Wedgwood/Johnson Brothers bought the Franciscan China company. So avid collectors may wish to purchase this two-piece butter dish even though they have the original one. You can use one for margarine and one for butter!
Description of Franciscan Apple Covered Butter
On the first day of January 1940, Apple was introducedas Gladding McBean's first pattern to have hand painted decoration on an embossed body. The design of the Apple collection has a red, green and brown apple decoration on a sand colored base. The apple design is in a hand-painted style of ripe red apples and green leaves with brown accents that parovide a warm sense of Fall year round.Introduced in California in 1940, the Franciscan Apple pattern gained immediate popularity and has become a favorite of collectors around the world. Leafy branches of red harvest apples painted on ivory porcelain evoke the rustic charm of a bygone era in California. This sweet little butter dish has branches wrapping around the perimeter of its base, an apple-laden limb on either side of the lid, and a lid handle perfectly shaped like an apple. The base is 8 inches long and 3-1/2 inches wide, and the lid has soft, rounded corners. The butter dish is safe in the dishwasher, microwave, and freezer. Whether you're putting the finishing touches on your Franciscan Apple china collection or pairing this piece with the matching creamer and sugar bowl to accessorize some other pattern, you can rest assured that you have invested in something worth keeping--classic tableware that will be cherished for generations to come. --Erin Brown
