Authentic mid-century American restaurant ware by Shenango China, produced in New Castle, Pennsylvania for Anchor Hocking. This set features the classic white vitrified china body with a maroon/red stripe — a staple of post-war diners and lunch counters.
Shenango was one of the premier suppliers of commercial-grade china in the mid-20th century, known for its durability, weight, and clean forms. These mugs are the heavier restaurant issue version, not modern reproductions.
