- Lost Molds and Found Dinnerware: Rediscovering Eva Zeisel's Hallcraft
- In the special exhibition, Lost Molds and Found Dinnerware: Rediscovering Eva Zeisel's Hallcraft, Zeisel's strong yet elegant, fluid yet playful dinnerware designs are juxtaposed along side the equally powerful original plaster molds created in the 1950s at the Hall China Company in East Liverpool, Ohio. The molds served as the tools for mass producing this beautifully designed "best-selling dinner set in the United States." For nearly four decades after production of these captivating wares ceased, the original Hallcraft master molds appeared to be lost, and then through the perseverance of Eva Zeisel and others, the molds were rediscovered in 1998. It is a story not nearly as memorable as the designs themselves, but with a happy ending.
