Russel Wright's American Modern was the best-selling dinnerware of the mid-century — soft, curving forms first produced in 1939 that put modern design on everyday American tables. Bauer Pottery reissues the line from Wright's original molds, glazing each piece by hand in Southern California in Bauer's own colors alongside Wright's classics.
The cup and saucer carries the line's signature low, flared profile: a teacup that sits wide and shallow on a saucer with a gently raised rim. It suits coffee as well as tea, and the colors mix freely across the collection. Bauer Orange carries a small premium for its glaze.
