Wood & Sons Ivory Ware Rose Table Ware

Ivorine China, or Ivory Ware, is a semi-porcelain body commonly called ironstone, and although the fired body looks vitreous or glass-like it is a refined earthenware and not true porcelain.  Ironstone china was patented in 1813 by Charles Mason as a  cheaper and more durable alternative to porcelain that could be mass produced.  Wood & Sons began producing the Ivory Ware line in the 1930's and it was one of their two most popular lines along with Beryl Ware which had a green colored body.

This vintage Wood and Sons Ivory Ware Rose cream pitcher and covered sugar dish was manufactured during the 30's to 40's.  It features a lovely brushed gold gadroon edge that has seen little wear.  This romantic and shabby chic set is free from cracks, chips, stains, or hazing.
