VTG Blue Ridge Southern Pottery Yellow Ridge Daisy 5.25 Fruit/Des. Bowl Set of 4

Description: This set of four vintage luncheon plates from Blue Ridge Southern Pottery features a charming yellow, green, white, and brown daisy pattern on round 5.25-inch ceramic plates. The plates are in fabulous condition for their age. One bowl has a very small chip missing. Please see all photos as they are part of the description. The plates were manufactured in Ohio and are part of the Yellow Daisy Ridge collection. They were manufactured in the 1930's and 1940's. The plates have a glossy finish and are handmade, making them a unique addition to any early 20th-century art pottery collection. These bowls are perfect for a charming luncheon or as decorative pieces in any home. Blue Ridge Southern Pottery began making their popular line of Blue Ridge dishes in 1938 in Erwin, Tennessee, an economically depressed area of Appalachia. Most dishes during that time period were made with dull, lifeless decals for decoration. The use of a method of hand painting the dishes before the final glaze was fired, resulted in vibrant colors, which made the designs come alive. Women were recruited from "up in the hills" who had no artistic training to learn the basic folk painting strokes used in creating these works of art. Using broken pieces of china for practicing, they soon acquired the speed and skill needed to produce the pieces. The technique gave the dishes a happy and less formal appearance that was very endearing to customers.
