Lot of FIVE (5) These beautiful 5″ High glass dishes are handpainted with enamels and lusters and fired. This pedestal dish is a piece of history from the MacKenzie-Childs era when Victoria and Richard MacKenzie-Childs owned and designed at the factory in Aurora up until 2001. Currently, this pattern and shape is not in production and has been retired for some time, so this piece is more collectible. MacKenzie-Childs factory sits upon the Cayuga Lake, one of the Finger Lakes in Upstate NY that spans 50 miles long. The glassware, when Victoria & Richard were owners and the only designers prior to 2001, did all the artwork onsite, then the actual painting of the glass was done in Ohio by trained M-C artists in factories with glass kilns. After painting and firing several times (the glass had to be fired many times for the gold and platinum were fired at a different temperature than the glass paints, and the decals etc) the product would be shipped back to the Aurora factory for final completion, ribbons, brass dots, etc. The completed product would then be packed and shipped out to retailers from Aurora. These dishes have been handpainted with black and white checked base, red luster stem; large gold painted dots with purple and green painted swirls around lip. Logo stamp on bottom, old square VRMC logo with date stamp. Pre-owned – great vintage condition.
