About this item
1979 Frankoma Collector Plate – “The Star Of Hope” by Joniece Frank
In the stillness of night, a single star pierced the darkness — guiding hearts toward light, promise, and redemption. Frankoma’s 1979 Christmas plate, The Star Of Hope, sculpted by Joniece Frank, captures this celestial moment with quiet majesty and enduring grace.
As the tenth release in the Frankoma holiday series, this plate reflects a decade of devotion — where clay becomes a canvas for faith and storytelling. The design is luminous yet grounded: a radiant star above a humble landscape, symbolizing the hope that rises even in uncertain times.
Crafted in Oklahoma’s signature red clay and finished in Frankoma’s warm glazes, each plate carries the legacy of handmade tradition and spiritual reflection. Whether gifted as a symbol of encouragement or displayed as part of a cherished collection, The Star Of Hope offers a gentle reminder: even the smallest light can lead the way.
