Pattern: Daisy (#219)

Style: Mid-Century Modern / 1970s hand-painted silkscreen stoneware featuring yellow and white daisies with brown and green floral stems on a beige background.
Vintage Stonecrest stoneware is highly regarded for its dense, heavy composition and daily durability, typical of high-quality mid-century kitchenware manufactured in South Korea during the 1970s.
High-Fired Durability: This clay was fired at exceptionally high temperatures (typically between 2,100°F and 2,300°F). This process vitrifies the clay body, making it significantly denser, harder, and more chip-resistant than standard earthenware.
Substantial Weight: True to the era, the plates have a thick, hefty, and solid profile that resists the casual knocks and bumps of everyday handling.
Excellent Thermal Retention: The dense stoneware walls naturally retain heat well, helping to keep served main courses warm throughout a meal.
Non-Porous Shield: The thick, glossy finish acts as a protective barrier that prevents moisture or food particles from absorbing into the underlying ceramic.
Ovenproof Quality: Original manufacturing specifications for Stonecrest Casual Classic items denote them as oven-to-table safe, allowing for gentle warming or low-heat baking.
Glaze and Color: The glossy finish remains bright and clear. The yellow, white, and green floral hand painted graphics are crisp with no obvious fading, rubbing, or missing paint.
