Sandalwood Masterpiece China by Franciscan
Franciscan Sandalwood was part of the Encanto Masterpiece Fine China collection. The Encanto advertisement
from 1955 pictured above describes the collection:
You've never seen china so beautiful — you've never seen china so durable — as
Encanto in Franciscan fine china. Superb craftsmanship — achieved by no other potters — fuses Franciscan's
strong, pearl-toned, china-body with china of subtle nature colors, then encircles them with gleaming platinum, Encanto
is a luxury to own — economy to buy. It sturdily resists the hazards of use and will be your delight and pride
— morning ... noon ... night - through years to come.
Franciscan Sandalwood Masterpiece China was
produced from 1952 to 1965. The platinum trim on this pattern means
that it is not safe for use in the microwave. If you need
replacement or additional pieces for your collection of Franciscan
Sandalwood Masterpiece China, monitor this page on a weekly basis
for new listings.
If the item you are looking for is not listed, then bookmark this page and check back each week!
Eventually, your item should show up for sale.
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?
