Product Details

The Homer Laughlin China Company, founded in 1871 in East Liverpool, Ohio, became one of America's largest pottery manufacturers. The 'Briar Rose' pattern was introduced in the 1930s as part of their Century shape line, featuring delicate pink floral sprays that epitomized the romantic aesthetic popular during the Depression era. These pieces were affordable yet elegant dinnerware for American households. Vintage Homer Laughlin pieces appeal to collectors of American pottery, Depression-era tableware enthusiasts, and those seeking charming vintage home décor. The 'Briar Rose' pattern is particularly valued for its soft, feminine design and its representation of 1930s American domestic life. Collectors appreciate these pieces for their historical significance as accessible luxury during challenging economic times, and they remain popular for both display and use in vintage-inspired table settings.
