The Era: Introduced in 1970 and produced into the early 1980s, the "Merry Mushroom" line became a hallmark of 1970s American home decor. The Design: It is instantly recognizable by its cream-colored base with a light bark-like woodgrain texture, a prominent 3D relief of orange, yellow, and brown wild mushrooms, and a lid shaped like a giant brown mushroom cap capped with a small mushroom handle. The Scale: This particular piece is the Extra-Large (11-inch) canister, which was the largest anchor piece in the standard 4-piece graduated kitchen canister set.
