Manufacturer: Taylor, Smith & Taylor
Very pretty vintage light blue Lu-ray Pastels oval platter in their large 13 1/4 inch size. Has molded handles at each end. Fully marked on underside base as made by Taylor, Smith & Taylor with "T. S. & T. Lu-ray Pastels U.S.A. 1040". There is also an impressed "8" on the underside base.
This old platter measures 13 1/4 inches long x 9 5/8 inches wide and sits about 1 inch in height. We've provided 5 images to show details and close-up of the manufacturer mark. Please use the zoom feature to examine closely and note that the camera lighting causes white "hot spots" on the glossy surfaces. For some reason we had trouble showing the true light blue color in the image of the full underside of the platter...we don't know why. But we assure you that the underside is the same lovely light blue color as the topside of this platter (you can see that in the close-up image of the manufacturer marking on the underside base).
Very nice, very usable condition, but not mint. This vintage piece came out of an older home where it was used. There are no chips, cracks or crazing. There are some pin/pit dots in the surface glazing on the underside of this piece (we don't see any on the topside). However, there are many scratches on the topside, most of them lighter scratches but we do see a few deeper/white ones. We don't really see any major knife/utensil marks on the topside beyond perhaps one very small mark near one handle. There are some other light use/wear dots/spots, etc., on the topside. On the underside there are also some scratches, rubbed spots, etc., expected wear.
Still a very usable piece which would look fine on display or when used in serving food, to add to your Lu-ray china collection. |
