UP FOR AUCTION IS THIS 3 PIECE SET OF RUSSEL WRIGHT'S AMERICAN MODERN. THIS IS A SET OF 4 CHARTREUSE COLOR SOUP BOWLS. I BOUGHT THIS & MANY OTHER PIECES AT AN ESTATE AUCTION. THEY HAD BEEN PACKED AWAY FOR MANY YEARS & MOST LOOK AS IF THEY WERE RARELY USED. RUSSEL WRIGHT INTRODUCED AMERICAN MODERN IN 1939 & IT WAS MADE UNTIL 1959. IT WAS MADE BY THE STEUBENVILLE POTTERY CO. IN STEUBENVILLE OHIO. CHARTREUSE WAS ONE OF THE ORIGINAL COLORS PRODUCED & WAS CALLED CHARTREUSE CURRY. SOME CALL IT SEEDLESS GRAPE, AS IT IS ALMOST THE SAME COLOR. AMERICAN MODERN WAS VERY RADICAL AT THE TIME, DUE TO THE UNUSUAL SHAPES & COLORS FOR THE TIMES. THE BOWLS ARE SOMETIMES REFERRED TO AS LUG SOUP BOWLS, BECAUSE THEY HAVE A TABBED HANDLE. THE BOWLS ARE 7" FROM RIM TO HANDLE'S EDGE & 5 7/8" WIDE. ALL 4 ARE IN EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH NO CHIPS OR CRACKS. ONE HAS A SWIRL LINE ON THE SIDE, NO BIG DEAL , BUT I DID WANT TO MENTION IT. A DID SEE SOME VERY LIGHT UTENSIL MARKS ON THE INSIDE, BUT THEY ARE HARD TO SEE IN NORMAL LIGHTING. THEY ARE MARKED ON THE BOTTOM. I HAVE MANY MORE PIECES OF AMERICAN MODERN & WILL BE LISTING THEM IN SEPERATE AUCTIONS. T ARE PLATES, CUPS, SAUCERS, SERVING PIECES, ETC., ALL IN THE CHARTREUSE COLOR. I WILL COMBINE WINNING AUCTIONS, AS LONG AS THE PIECES CAN BE SAFELY SHIPPED TOGETHER. ALL ITEMS ARE SHIPPED WITH DELIVERY CONFIRMATION,
