Shopping for Microwave Safe Dinnerware
The largest selling pattern in the history of American dinnerware, Franciscan Desert Rose made its debut in 1941 and has enjoyed the world's longest period of popularity of any dinnerware pattern produced by a single company. The Rose Rugosa, rugged wild rose of poem and song, was a natural design selection. The character of the bloom with its simple delicate petals made it adaptable to hand painting. This beautiful pattern is still one of America's favorite casual tableware patterns. In 1964 the sixty millionth piece had been produced and Desert Rose is now on display in the historical Smithsonian Museum. First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy chose Franciscan Desert Rose for use in the White House. In Desert Rose, the irregularly scalloped edge of thorny vines creates a believable frame for the fully opened pink roses with their golden centers and soft green leaves. The softness of the design is further enhanced by its cream colored background.
After experiencing decades of popularity, Franciscan Ware Desert Rose was discontinued in 2013. If you need replacement or additional pieces for your collection of Franciscan Ware Desert Rose, monitor this page on a weekly basis for new listings.

When it comes to finding Franciscan Ware and China that is difficult to find in stores near you, one of your best resources for acquiring the items you want are sites like Amazon, Etsy, Replacements and eBay, where there are a lot of wonderful finds still in the original boxes. We all receive those odd items as gifts that we have no need for and never use. Yet, one person's junk could be exactly the treasure you want.
Please Note: Not all Franciscan is safe for use in the microwave. Patterns with gold or platinum decorations around the rim should not be used in your microwave because microwaves can not pass through metal. If in doubt, use this simple test: Is this Utensil Safe for the Microwave?
