mid-century california stoneware, 1956–1961
We love these for their subtle strength and style — the Navajo pattern from Metlox Poppytrail is one of those iconic mid-century designs that feels both grounded and quietly bold. Made in California between 1956 and 1961, this line was crafted from durable stoneware and meant to be used, not just admired.
The creamy base glaze is speckled and matte, accented with a soft geometric band in earthy turquoise and brown — it’s a warm and timeless look that works beautifully in both casual and collected spaces.
Measurements:
• Cup – 2.5” tall, 7 oz capacity
• Saucer – 6” diameter
Why we love it:
Stoneware like this holds up — it resists chipping and has just the right amount of weight in the hand. These pieces are perfect for morning coffee, afternoon tea, or styled simply on open shelving.
