Vintage Franciscan Desert Rose Napkin Holder Hard to Find Rare Franciscanware

downsizing my personal collection. Franciscan Desert Rose Napkin Holder. This is a more contemporary piece as evidenced by the trademark. Napkin holder is dishwasher and microwave safe. This piece is rare and hard to find. When the ground-breaking Desert Rose pattern by Franciscan premiered in 1941, it was a distinctly American contrast to traditional European bone china. The gamble paid off - Desert Rose would go on to become one of the largest selling casual tableware patterns in the history of dinnerware! Thank you for your consideration.(e35)
