1950s Russel Wright Divided Casserole by Iroquois

10” Divided Casserole by Iroquois.

Created by the famous designer Russel Wright. These gorgeous stoneware pieces were manufactured in New York by Iroquois. The Casual line is a successor of his American Modern collection. Before all else, these were crafted for their immense durability. At the launch of the collection in 1950, the manufacturer offered a money-back guarantee in the case of needless chipping. Russell Wright went from department store to department store, showcasing his latest work by flipping a bin of dishware upside down over the counter, proving their strength. The successful collection remained in production for nearly 20 years and was discontinued in 1967.

This hyper-stylish modern dish set comes in Casual Apricot.

About 10 inches wide and 3 inches tall.
