TWO Frankoma PLAINSMAN BROWN 10" Dinner Plates Stoneware Vintage Scalloped Edge

Description: This is for a set of two 10" dinner plates from Frankoma in their PLAINSMAN BROWN pattern--at least I think it is the color considered "Brown"--I see some inconsistencies on the internet with what the different colors look like: Brown vs Apricot vs Cinnamon. Frankoma made the Plainsman pattern starting in the 1950's. These two dinner plates are in very good vintage condition with no cracks, no chips, no stains, no blemishes. Nice color. Very few signs of past use--all subtle. Would fit in with any gently used Frankoma dinner plates. HEAVY plates! As reflected in shipping--pick up available in Seattle area. Just reach out to arrange. Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE How I Assess Vintage Pieces Please note that my written descriptions are more than just a one line list of the dimensions. AND they are not AI-generated! I want the Buyer to know exactly what they are getting, so I strive to identify all flaws—even minor ones—in the photos and descriptions. Vintage items typically have light signs of usage: utensil marks, diminished shine to the glaze, scratches on the design, chips, crazing, and cracks. The situations mentioned above are exactly what I examine each item for, under a bright light and with glasses on, as I am listing it. I don’t use the word “excellent” unless there is no crazing, no cracks, no chips, zero utensil marks, no signs of past use and no muting of colors or glaze sheen…so I rarely use the word “excellent” for a vintage item.

Franciscan, Noritake, Lenox, Stangl, Salem, California potteries, Dorothy Thorpe, McCoy, Hazel Atlas, Fire King, Anchor Hocking, Pyrex, and Corning Ware/Corelle are some of the brands I seek out and educate myself about. I’m drawn to kitchenware because kitchen is the heart of the home. The ritual of choosing a plate pattern when getting married is one of the first choices an engaged couple makes together. This is when they decide what image of “successful adulthood” they want to portray to their friends and family. Often the bride had more control over these choices—but so much less control about most everything else. Women are still fighting for control over their bodies, education, careers, and destiny. It may seem odd to look backwards at dishes and bowls from the 1920’s-1970’s to be inspired about women’s rights but I am aware on a daily basis that any opportunity or privilege I have today was made possible by women who came before me—intelligent women like my mother who may have not been legally able to have her own checking account or attend certain universities, but still took action to shape a better future.
