Collectibles: Franciscan ware
Article Abstract:
Franciscan ware was originally made by Gladding McBean with a one-fire process. The dinnerware once offered 150 patterns, but in 1992 only Desert Rose and Apple are manufactured by Wedgwood. Pieces can be found in antique shops and from collectors and original patterns will always be valuable.
