NIB RARE Vintage Homer Laughlin Eggshell Nautilus Priscilla Pattern 12 pc Set: Lunch plates, Bread/Salad Plates, and Rim Soups bowls

This is a rare 12 piece set from Homer Laughlin's Eggshell Nautilus line with the beautiful Priscilla Pattern from Household Institute decal in the middle with a gold detail trim decal around the edge from 1947. Beautiful set of plates and bowls all in the original box! As factory fresh as you can find - never used!

Almost a year had passed since the regular Nautilus line was put into production when HLC decided to use the shape as a basis for a new type of body called Eggshell. Rhead would often call this a "talc body" but it was really a special combination, light weight clay. Some vintage ads identify the primary mineral involved as Tremolite - or Calcium Magnesium Silicate Hydroxide Ca 2 Mg 5 Si 8 O 22 (OH) 2 . The flatware for Nautilus Eggshell is the same as the regular Nautilus version, but the hollowware is different.

Hundreds of decals were used on Nautilus Eggshell from its introduction until it was discontinued in the early 1960s. It and Virginia Rose are arguably the most decorated shapes HLC produced.

Nautilus Eggshell was a sharp contrast to the Art Deco and Streamline shapes for the 1930s and '40s as well as the more casual lines of the '50s. In most catalogs from the 1950s, Nautilus Eggshell is usually offered alongside Georgian Eggshell and the last eggshell shape made by Homer Laughlin, Cavalier.
