I collect these too =) What I have found out is that they were made popular in the 1950's and were originally made in Japan. They are meant to resemble the Lotus and were used as dessert or rice bowls. They came in Easter-ish pastel colors and you can still find them on eBay with MADE IN JAPAN stamped on the bottom in red. Now you can find white colored ones and various other versions out there but they are shaped a little different... yours looks like the 50s versions that I have, so enjoy!!!LotusHaushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01238820001914083546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8999211455097284615.post-8457618391699936712009-02-27T19:21:00.000-08:002009-02-27T19:21:00.000-08:00Your grandma has excellent taste!
