Description

Pinterest Hidden Image

This set of four Franciscan Nut Tree stoneware side plates dates from the 1970s and was made in England — a detail that matters to collectors, as Franciscan produced the Nut Tree pattern on both sides of the Atlantic and the two versions differ in a meaningful way.

A note on the UK pattern: The English edition of the Nut Tree pattern does not feature the black to dark brown band alongside the light-blue band that appears on the American version. Instead, it carries a dark brown band around the smooth edge. If you are trying to complete or match a set, please confirm which version you have before purchasing.
