Lenox Rutledge Oval Vegetable Bowl 10 Inch Ivory China Gold Trim

This is a Lenox Rutledge oval open vegetable bowl, 10 inches by 7 1/2 inches at the widest point, in ivory fine china with a wide fluted rim.

A thin gold band rings the inside shoulder and separates the fluted border from the deep well. Four sprays of raised enamel flowers sit just outside the gold, with blue, yellow and orange blossoms, orange berries and green leaves against a deep purple ground, so the flowers stand slightly proud of the glaze and catch the light as the bowl turns.

The bowl is footed, with a fine gold line around the base. There are no chips and no cracks, the fluted rim and the well are smooth, the gold band inside is unbroken, and the gold on the foot is clean with no rubbing. The back carries the gold stamp with the laurel wreath, LENOX, RUTLEDGE, © LENOX INC., MADE IN USA.

Rutledge draws on a design from the 1920s and ran from 1953 to 1988. The open vegetable bowl is the piece that lets a set serve at the table rather than only at the pla... Mid century formal china, fluted oval

    Questions buyers ask

    Every listing spells it out and shows it in photos. Chips, hairlines, crazing, worn plating, old repairs. If I did not mention it, it is not there.

    Yes. Every photo is the actual piece, taken by me. When it sells, it is gone.

    I note maker, mark, era, and measurements when I can confirm them, and say so plainly when I cannot. Unmarked pieces get dated by what the piece itself shows.

    I process order within 2 business days, wrapped and boxed so it arrives the way it left here. Don't forget, free shipping on orders $35 and up.
