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 tumbler is the line's handle-less cup — a straight-sided glass form in glazed ceramic that works for water, juice or coffee, and stacks neatly. It is the simplest way into the collection and the piece most often bought in sets.
