Creamer/Dinner Plate
This Maroon is a signature color of the 1950s, as are the gray, bright yellow and dark green. The coupe shaped plate is more exaggerated than most and really keeps the food where it belongs.

Mark on the bottom lets you know the colored stripes were placed under a clear glaze so you can safely put this dinnerware in a dishwasher and not have the decoration wash off.
