This vintage Butter Pat Spoon Rest Teabag Holder by Franciscan features a lovely pink floral design in a mid-century modern style. Made of ceramic in California, USA, during the 1940s, this piece is part of the Desert Rose product line. The hand-painted flower pattern adds a charming touch, making it a unique and practical addition to your kitchen decor.

Desert Rose china became popular for its unique design. The bright pink and green hues of the pattern gave it a vintage charm that was unlike any other dinnerware patterns in circulation at the time.

Franciscan’s pattern got a significant boost in popularity thanks to widescale advertising campaigns throughout the 1940s and 1950s that featured Hollywood celebrities such as Joan Crawford, Greer Garson and Dorothy Lamour. In 1964, the sixty millionth piece was produced and First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy chose Franciscan Desert Rose for use in the White House.
