This Homer Laughlin luncheon plate has a quiet elegance about it. In the well-known Virginia Rose shape, it has that gently scalloped rim and soft embossed detail that gives it a nice graceful look. Across the ivory china surface are delicate clusters of pink flowers with soft green leaves, scattered lightly around the plate. The design feels cheerful and light, like something that would have been set on a sunny luncheon table decades ago. Around the edge is a thin platinum trim, which still shows nicely with only light rubbing from age and use. Homer Laughlin introduced the Virginia Rose shape in the early 1930s, and it remained popular for many years. This plate was made in 1950, when these floral luncheon sets were common in American homes. It’s a versatile piece of vintage china that works well for collectors looking to replace a missing plate, or simply for someone who enjoys mixing vintage pieces into everyday table settings.
