This is a brown drip glaze ovenproof ceramic au gratin dish, oval with handles and marked OVENPROOF USA on the base. The factory-molded form and heavy drip glaze place it in the vintage American kitchenware tradition.
• Marked OVENPROOF USA on the underside; no maker attribution is visible in the photos.
• Brown drip glaze with a cream-to-brown mottled interior and darker brown rim and base.
• Oval form with two side handles, made as a factory-molded ceramic piece.
• The glaze shows the classic drip effect collectors look for in vintage American pottery.

• No chips or cracks are clearly visible in the provided photos.
Made for baking and serving au gratin dishes, casseroles, and other oven-to-table recipes, this piece also works well today as a display item for a vintage kitchen collection or rustic tabletop decor.
