Halls Superior Quality Kitchenware by Mary Dunbar

4.5 inch high and 9 inch wide large bowl. No chips. Some gold wear. Dinnerware in the Autumn Leaf pattern by the Hall Superior China Company was exclusively manufactured for the Jewel Tea company from 1936 - 1978. It was extremely popular and the only way to obtain pieces were as premiums from Jewel Tea. They were offered by door-to-door sales people as premiums for the purchase of other items, such as grocery items, teas and coffee. Many housewives in that time collected this beautiful orange and gold leafed dinnerware and used it as their best china. Today these pieces are highly collectible. Markings on the bottoms say 'Hall Superior Kitchenware' and 'Tested and Approved by Mary Dunbar Jewel Homemakers Institute'.
