Description: This is for a set of two berry bowls from Noritake in their ATHENA pattern. ATHENA features a grey and gold greek key pattern with platinum trim. This bowl measures 5 5/8" in diameter and 1 1/4" in height. Noritake made ATHENA from 1961 to 1964 and this pattern has a very cool mid century modern design to it. It is very of that era, unmistakable retro space age. Condition is gently used vintage with no obvious signs of past use. No cracks, no chips, no stains, little to no wear of platinum accents. These looks good! Were gently used, if every used at all, and taken care of over the decades. Price is for two and there are three sets of 2 available. Quantity discount if you buy more than one set and only $1 additional shipping per set. 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. Problems: In the event of a problem, please contact me asap. I want you to be happy with your purchase! Returns: Returns accepted within 30 days of purchase. Buyer pays return postage.

If you check out my feedback, you will see I do not often disappoint. Looking for Other Vintage Mid Century Modern Items? WAXWING MID MOD may be able to help! Let me know what you are after. At any given moment I have 100+ items not listed yet! I focus on mid-century modern plate sets, serving pieces, barware, glassware, stemware, vases, and art. You can find me under AstridWaxwing09 on various platforms. I love reuniting orphan glassware with its pattern family! 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.
