This is the smallest individual plate offered in the Morning Glory pattern. The plate is glazed allover in white and the top is further decorated with the blue Morning Glory handpainted design.

The Morning Glory pattern design incorporates a hand-painted trailing vine of morning glory flowers and foliage on the Concord shapes. Red Wing Potteries offered Morning Glory in two colors: one with pink flowers and the other with blue. Serving pieces are gray, bronze, yellow or forest green.

Along with the Provincial line, the Concord line of dinnerware represented a significant shift in the way that Red Wing Potteries produced dinnerware. For the first time, the Potteries offered dinnerware that was individually hand painted. The dinnerware line was a huge success for the Potteries. With artistic proficiency, the Concord dinnerware patterns offered a beautifully rendered alternative to solid colored dinnerware in the Red Wing portfolio.

Red Wing Potteries introduced their Concord line of dinnerware in 1941 with the Harvest pattern. The potteries introduced other patterns over time. 18 different patterns graced the new, unique, slightly squared shapes. Service ware was either decorated or came in solid, complementary colors, depending upon the pattern. The service ware lids were usually decorated. Frequently, the Potteries offered a choice of service ware colors for a particular pattern.

Red Wing Potteries gradually converted from producing stoneware to dinnerware and art pottery. Starting in the 1930's and through their closure in 1967, Red Wing Potteries produced over a hundred different dinnerware patterns. Forms ranged from traditional shapes to the whimsical. Patterns included every design from floral motifs to the abstract. They produced heavy ceramic, fine china and economy dinnerware sets. Some patterns consisted of mostly flatware with few serving pieces. Some patterns consisted of only serving pieces. Other patterns had both.

On the bottom of most Red Wing dinnerware pieces you will find three little dots. These dots are left in the glaze by the little tripod that the Potteries used to support the piece when they fired it in the kiln. The three dots are not damage, they are a remnant of the manufacturing process and authenticate the piece as being actual Red Wing.
