A decorating magazine reports that solid-color Bauer pottery, first made in 1930, is an “icon” today. The original company went out of business in 1960, but copies made from new molds of old dishes have been produced in Highland, Calif., since 1998. You can identify old from new. The new Bauer mark includes the words “2000 Highland USA.” Visit BauerPottery.com to learn more about the new dishes.
