Lenox Holiday Appraisal

Lenox Dimension Collection Holiday Teacup Saucer

This item is the underside of a white ceramic teacup saucer from the Lenox 'Dimension Collection Holiday' line. The saucer is notable for its classic, slightly off-white or cream color, indicating it is likely made of fine china or porcelain. The visible surface is smooth and glossy, suggesting a well-glazed finish. The backside reveals a raised, concentric ring in the center designed to seat a teacup securely, preventing it from sliding. The primary identifying features are the manufacturer's backstamp located within this raised ring. The mark clearly reads 'DIMENSION COLLECTION' at the top, followed by the distinctive Lenox logo, which includes the word 'LENOX®' with a wreathed 'L' emblem. Below the logo, 'HOLIDAY' is inscribed, specifying the pattern. Further text, though partially obscured, indicates 'DISHWASHER SAFE' and 'K LENOX MADE IN U.S.A.'. The 'MADE IN U.S.A.' designation points to its origin and potentially its age, as Lenox has had a long history of manufacturing within the United States. The overall condition appears excellent with no visible chips, cracks, or significant wear on the accessible surface. The clear, crisp nature of the backstamp suggests careful handling and minimal use. The craftsmanship is typical of Lenox, known for its high-quality dinnerware, characterized by clean lines and durable materials. The 'Holiday' pattern often features festive motifs on the top surface, which would complement this plain reverse. This saucer represents a common, well-regarded brand in collectible dinnerware.
