1937 - 1942
Montecito was released under the Franciscan name in 1937. The shapes were newly designed, with a turn toward elegance. The colors offered where a combination of tested favorites and new additions.
Montecito was not favored by the buying public. Because of the low interest, the pieces offered were not expanded, and production span was only five years.
Many Franciscan collectors are drawn to Montecito for the elegance of the sculpted handles, the depth of the colors and the acorn finials that grace the tops of the covered pieces.
