[QUOTE="scoutshouse, post: 1339621, member: 267"]I had 2 sets of ironstone granite dinnerware in yellow for years. The sets came in matching hex shaped boxes with telescoping tops, very cute. Still have one of these. [IMG]https://www.picclickimg.com/d/l400/pict/183775409672_/Mod-Vintage-Mikasa-Orb-Black-Blue-Vase-Portugal.jpg[/IMG] They had great deals on flatware, tableware and glass and decorative items like vases. As you noted above, they didn't manufacture their own things - a lot of great design(ers) from many countries got distributed to the best department stores. Vera is one I recall. I never stood in line, I just wandered in there for fun :) There was also a giant pic'n'save (later mac frugal's) next door, new and still super cheap at the time.[/QUOTE]
