Avon isn't just about fragrances and cosmetics. During the late 1960s and early 1970s, Avon started expanding their product line starting with jewelry and then collectibles. In 1975, Avon introduced a new dinnerware line called 1876 Cape Cod Collection. A rich ruby-red color coupled with a design reminiscent of the old 'Sandwich Glass' produced by the Boston & Sandwich Glass Works founded in Cape Cod in 1825. The pattern was said to be inspired by the classic Roman Rosette pattern. The designs and glass production were awarded to the Wheaton Glass Company of Millville, NJ. Avon had to approve all the mold drawings before the production began.
The 1876 Cape Cod Collection was produced from 1975 through 1993 and 37 different pieces were made.Such a beautiful design and gorgeous ruby-red color.
I am interested in purchasing a set that will serve 12 (plates, gobblets, mugs etc). I would like a set that includes all of the extras also. The heart box, candle holders, napkin rings etc.
