Harry Bird’s Tropical Fish
This scene features a setting of Harry Bird’s Tropical Fish dinnerware for Vernon Kilns on the Montecito shape. The table in the scene is the Heywood-Wakefield C3361G with C3361 side chairs and C3362 buffet server. Heywood produced this set between 1938-39.
Like all of Harry Bird’s in-glazed designs, this collectors’ favorite pattern is extremely difficult to find.
Tropical Fish angled carafe, creamer and sugar with 14″ chop plate.
10″ dinner plate with #1 tumbler and carafe.
7.5″ salad plate with angled teapot and cup and saucer.
