| Ronald Reagan’s (1981-1989) - 1982 11.625" State Dinner Service Plate-Manufactured by Lenox of Trenton, New Jersey. This Scarlet Red Color was selected specifically by First Lady Nancy Reagan; in part for her fondness for red and also in that Scarlet Red provided a bright accent to the White Paneled Walls and Gilded Accessories of the State Dining Room. Mrs. Reagan personally approved the sketches for each piece and made the final decision about how the Gold and Red Banding should be applied. |
 |
The gorgeous Presidential Arms, in the center of the above Service Plate, was hand-applied in Raised Gold Paste. Forty separate handlings and an unheard of nine firings were required to make this Ronald and Nancy Reagan Official White House Service for 220 People at a Cost of $210,399. |
FIRST LADY ------------------------------------ Note: Reference the verso plate markings on all Lenox Presidential china - It is also appropriate to see or not see the words, "For Lenox China Inc.", directly above markings, as seen illustrated on the left. |
