Vernon Kilns “Tam O’Shanter” cup + saucer
Quick Details:
Vintage California pottery — Vernon Kilns, “Tam O’Shanter”
Hand-painted underglaze plaid
Saucer (Stamped): 6.25", Cup (Unmarked): 4" diameter × 2.375"
No chips, cracks, or crazing
Minor paint quirks on the saucer underside
Description:
If cheerful plaid had a personality, it would be this set. Hand-painted back when “artisanal” wasn’t a marketing buzzword, each brushstroke in the Tam O’Shanter pattern is delightfully imperfect — like your favorite friend who always looks put together but swears they’re a hot mess.
The saucer comes stamped with the full Vernonware flourish, while the cup plays it cool and unmarked. Don’t let that fool you: they go together like tea and a chilly morning, or shortbread and a good story — cozy, classic, and meant to be paired.
Warm colors, vintage charm, and a little built-in quirk — perfect for collectors, cozy-kitchen types, or anyone who appreciates a bit of personality with their morning tea.
