Richelieu by Tuttle


This pattern was introduced in 1935 by International which was later bought by Tuttle, so your older pieces may have the International silver marks on them, while the newer pieces will say Tuttle. This design represents the abundant style reminiscent of French and Italian furnishings. You can see an acanthus leaf in the heavy detail. These elements were a liberation from the years of the plain art deco patterns of the 1920s. The pattern was discontinued in 1996.
