Vintage 1960's
Vintage Franciscan "Apple Pattern" Sugar Bowl & Creamer Set. Made in the USA. They were introduced in 1940, Franciscan Apple is a beautiful earthenware pattern featuring hand-painted designs that reflect the beauty of California's apple orchards. Apple looks great year-round, and pieces from this pattern make impressive gifts. Apple earthenware was proving so popular, it was continued to be made by the Wedge wood group after closing the Franciscan production facility in Los Angeles in 1984. English Franciscan Apple will be back stamped "Made in England". American Franciscan Apple will read "Made in USA", Made in California", and/or have a U.S. trademark." -"Franciscan, An American Dinnerware Tradition"
The Creamer measures approximately 3 1/4" x 2 and holds 10 ounces, the Sugar Bowl is 4 1/4" x 3.5. The creamer and sugar bowl it's self are in excellent condition, but I did notice a slight hairline crack which doesn't go thru on the Sugar lid (see picture) but still very usable.
