DESCRIPTION:Do you rememberDuzDetergent?These timeless Golden Wheat dishes, embellished with real 22K gold, originated as premiums in boxes of Duz detergent during the 1950\'s. Each month brought a different packaged dishcarefully inserted in a box of laundry detergent. Not sure how they fit the Dinner plate or the Platters in the box but that is what they did... Folks stockpiled closets full of detergent in order to collect the entire set of these sturdy dishes.
Imagine a manufacturer giving away something as beautiful and practical as thesenowvery collectibledishes inANYproduct today?In the era of down-sizing quantity for the same amount of money - finding a bonus dish in abox of anything would cause seriousmedical emergencies around the neighborhood on a regular basis...
Also, although these were free for the cost of the soap, people collected, displayedthese and usedthem as their best china - reserved for holidays and special occasions. Times weredifferent back then...
People say they collect these classic dishes because ofthe fond memories of theirMother, Grandmother, or Auntopening a box and findingthedish of the monthwhile doing the laundry orwhile they were helpingset the table with themfor special occasions. Or even how they grewup with these family heirloomsand listened totheir Mom tell them the story over and over ofherMother/Grandmotherdoing just that.
But isn\'t that whywe collect anything? It\'s not the objects themselves - butthe feelings, memoriesand emotionsthat happen withthese cherished objects. Thealmost forgotten connections... They come magically back as you holdthese beautiful dishes,when you touchthem, feel them. That\'s the value, that iswhat isso special. Picture above of Duz Detergent box is NOT included. 🍍 NOT INCLUDED… 😃
ABOUT THE PLATES:My grandmother, God bless her soul, collected these over many years in the 50’s by continually buying Duz detergent.
