Description
This mid-century modern 6-piece sectional appetizer and relish set was manufactured in the United States by Maurice of California. Designed in a two-tone pastel palette featuring alternate sky blue and off-white/cream glazed ceramic sections, each component is decorated with an embossed geometric four-quadrant motif on the interior wells. The set includes four curved fan-shaped outer wedge dishes, one center round dip bowl, and a circular revolving wooden lazy Susan base turntable.
The undersides of the ceramic pieces are clearly incised with the factory hallmark reading "MAURICE CALIF USA S-14". Popular during the 1950s through 1970s, California art pottery lazy Susan sets like this model S-14 were quintessential entertaining accessories designed for serving chips, dips, hors d'oeuvres, and relishes at dinner parties and family gatherings. Minor chipping is present on ceramic edges; please see photos for condition.
