This Poppy & Rose design was introduced by Homer Laughlin in the 1930's and continued in production through the mid-1950's. This pattern is perhaps one of the most popular Homer Laughlin designs beyond their Fiesta. Most of the pieces were made in the Kwaker shape.
In Excellent Condition, this serving platter measures 9 1/2" wide and 11 5/8" long. The bright floral pattern remains sharp. There are occasional utensil marks that can best be seen when held at an angle to the light. No crazing, nicks, or chips are noted. The platter carries the Homer Laughlin mark. The Homer Laughlin Company marked their dishes during this time with a number and letter code indicating the plant where they were manufactured and the year that piece was made. The marks on this platter indicates it was made in 1954.
The design of Orange Poppies, Yellow Roses, and Black Leaves by Homer Laughlin is informally known as "Poppy & Rose" by most collectors, "Olivia" by others, and tagged as "Ivora" by some. You may wish to see other items in this pattern (being added within this shop) and create your own place settings. The last two photos show this platter with a round soup bowl (a set of 4 is listed separately) and another photo shows this oval serving platter with the oval serving bowl also listed separately.
