The oyster plate is considered to be one of the most desirable pieces of this extensive and much admired state service, which featured images of American flora and fauna on a variety of innovative forms. For a detailed discussion of the Rutherford Hayes service, see Margaret Brown Klapthor, Official White House China 1789 to the Present (New York, 1999), pp. 102-121.
