10 Gorgeous Universal Ballerina Mist Strawflower 6-1/4" Bread Plates EXCELLENT!
Ballerina refers to the shape, and the Strawflower pattern features delicate pink flowers highlighted in white, sage and brown leaves and a platinum trim. The color is so 50's and perfect for the retro/shabby chic/boho collector.
1950's advertisement says: "Ballerina Mist . . . Says such nice things about you. Heavenly dinnerware for your finest table. The clean sophisticated shape, so unmistakably Ballerina. The misty blue-green color, not just on the surface, but all the way through. The delicate flora designs, so lifelike you’ll match them with the living blossoms. And – smart hostess! – the permanent finish that will never scratch or fade. Set your table with Ballerina Mist. It says such nice things about you!"
UNIVERSAL Potteries was located in Cambridge, Ohio & evolved in the early 1930s from a merger between Atlas-Globe and Oxford.  The company is best known to collectors for its Cattail and Ballerina lines. The Universal Potteries Company sold many lines to grocery stores, movie houses and service stations for use as premium items. Ballerina was widely distributed and decorated in many different decorations and treatments. The Universal Potteries Company closed in 1960.
These lovely plates have a singular bluish / green color.  They measure 6-1/4" in diameter.  These were "the good dishes" to be used only when the "important people" were coming over.
They must not have come over too often because the bread plates are in EXCELLENT condition, free of chips and cracks and scratches.  The painted flowers are just gorgeous.  This set will be a fantastic addition to your Universal collection.  As a bonus, i'm also send an 11th plate.  It has a chip repair, (see photos) but you may be able to use it in an emergency.
I have some other interesting pieces up for auction in this same pattern.  Take a look at those as well.
