    I believe that's from Atterbury's Melon line, ca. 1878

    Here's a catalog image of the table set.

    You mean a repro, right? L.G. Wright.

    Silly Me, I hadnt thought about that. The color does look 1970s. L. G. Wright didn't make anything they called Melon, I don't have pictures of the lines they did make, can't imagine scanning through every piece...Any others have opinions? I don't know that Atterbury didn't make that color.

    Edit: Correct typo.
