Vintage 1983 MacKenzie-Childs Bearded Iris Hand-Painted Majolica Tureen with Lid

Beautiful and rare vintage 1983 MacKenzie-Childs tureen with matching lid in the retired Bearded Iris pattern. Hand-painted in the original Aurora, NY studio, this piece features the signature Taylor Collection mix of patterns—pastel yellow and blue checkerboard, pink zigzags with yellow dots, and cross-hatched lattice in teal and red. Crafted from majolica pottery with a glossy glaze finish, it is both functional and highly collectible. Stamped “1983” on the base, marking it as an early production piece. Measures approximately 12” wide (handle to handle), 9” deep, and 8” tall with lid. Excellent vintage condition with no chips, cracks, or repairs; colors remain vibrant and the glaze has a beautiful sheen. Perfect for collectors or as a striking centerpiece in any home.
