LENOX HELMSLEY MADE IN U.S.A. Vintage, Made in America 1980s ⚫︎ Unused Introducing a plate from the "Hemsley" series by Lenox, a renowned American porcelain manufacturer, featuring delicate flowers blooming gently on a pale ivory background. Lenox was founded in 1889. It is a brand hailed as the pinnacle of American porcelain, even adopted as the official tableware of the White House. Its style, which fuses the traditional beauty of European porcelain with American sophistication, has embodied the ideal of "artistic yet practical" ( ᵕᴗᵕ * This era of Lenox was a golden age, demanding extremely high levels of completion in the balance of colors, gilding, and designs, even with mass production. It breathes the rich spirit of the times, seeking to restore "quality" to everyday life. It has an elegant form with a gentle rise at the edge. The center leaves a quiet blank space, designed to enhance food and desserts. It doesn't overly assert itself, yet it exudes a definite presence—that is the beauty of Lenox's design. The porcelain is smooth, and the texture when touched by the fingertips is extremely smooth. The gilding that adorns the edge, though understated, shines with a definite brilliance and changes its expression depending on the angle of the light. The flowers are not mere decoration. Pink, salmon, sage green, and pale blue—a soft palette that is classic yet somehow feminine and lovely ˊᵕˋ Different from both European porcelain and American modern, it has a "refined gentleness" unique to Lenox. The arrangement of the flowers has a rhythm, designed so that the gaze naturally circles the plate. Lenox from an era when it was made based on "beauty" rather than mass production. That's why its value stands out in modern life*.゜ Please enjoy using it*:✼. ⚪︎ Size Diameter: Approximately 18.5cm Height: Approximately 1.9cm ⚪︎ This is unused vintage.
