    Description

    Orchard Dinnerware Company "Cherry" Pattern service for 12 with two extra pieces, and serving pieces, total of 109 pieces in all, not including lids for certain items as indicated below. I would characterize this as a breakfast or luncheon set.  Condition is used, but every piece is flawless.  This is very charming, hand painted china, from a California company that was in business, as near as I can determine, from the forties to the fifties.  Many small specialty manufacturers like Orchard flourished in the early post-WWII era as there were many skilled women who did war work and wanted to find employment when those jobs ended, and returning GIs were buying houses and furnishing them so lots of household items were in high demand.
    The set consists of the following:
    12 dinner plates 10-5/8"
    12 juice or water tumblers 12 ounces 5-3/8" tall
    12 juice tumblers 4 ounces 3-1/2" tall
    12 saucers
    12 cups
    1 coffeepot and lid
    1 creamer and lid
    1 sugar bowl and lid
    2 salt and pepper sets
    1 8" serving bowl
    1 8-1/4" serving bowl with lid
    13 small 5-1/4" fruit/dessert bowls
    13 bread & butter plates 6-3/4"
    12 lugged cereal/soup bowls 6-1/2"
    1 serving platter 12"
    1 serving platter 14"
    Shipping will be at a flat charge of 0 (US only, no foreign shipping unless specially negotiated) due to the number of items and the carefully packing that will be required.
