Home Tableware & Barware | Vintage Frankoma Mayan Aztec Prairie Green Salad Plates Small Bowl & Large Cup Collection- 4 Pieces YA71696

There are two Frankoma salad plates, one small bowl and one large mug Collection in Prairie Green, colors vary no two pieces are alike.See pictures for measurements.The Myan-Aztec glazes are limited in the early years. From 1949-1952 the only glazes offered are prairie green and desert gold. White sand is added to the line in 1953. Frankoma started to offer the shakers in other colors after about 1960. The concept began with John Frank, who had graduated from the Chicago Art Institute in 1927. He was then hired by the University of Oklahoma to establish the Ceramic Art Department.
Not long after his arrival in Oklahoma, he married Grace Lee, and together they began producing a line of fine art clay pottery and sculpture which would be affordable to most people. Grace Lee made the suggestion that because they were the only commercial pottery in Oklahoma, they should use their last name Frank and add the letters O, M, and an A for Oklahoma for the name Frankoma Potteries.
