Editorial Review:
Is it the bright, mix and match colors? Or the timeless yet nostalgic art deco design? Did you first fall in love with an old pitcher at a flea market, or with a gleaming new teapot at a department store? Are you passionate about one particular color or do you fall into "the more the merrier" camp? Avid fans of Fiesta have been collecting it for over six decades, making it one of the most popular china patterns in the world. One of the very best features of Fiestaware is the opportunity to personalize your addiction, um, collection.
First introduced in 1936 by the Homer Laughlin China Company and reissued in 1986 to mark the 50th anniversary of the line, colorful Fiestaware has been a collectable dinnerware favorite for generations. While original Fiestaware can fetch prices as high as $6,000 for a rare piece in a rare color, new Fiestaware is affordable, features the same great styling as the originals, and, unlike older pieces, has a 100 percent lead-free glaze. With the signature Fiestaware concentric rings around the plate rim and a plum color, these plates complement Fiestaware dinnerware and accessories in plum or other colors. The glaze is nonporous and durable, but some stainless-steel flatware may leave marks on the plates. These marks can be removed with a nonabrasive cleanser. --Emily Wolf

You also can't go wrong for quality here. It's lead and cadmium free, which is a very important issue with items which come into contact with food, particularly acidic food. While lead... more info
From now on only Fiestaware!:
I bought for everyday use most items of the Santa Fe Collection by Pacific Rim Imports wich went out of production... As my plates are very colorful, I've decided to mismatch them with solid color plates in all the colors displayed by Santa Fe's design and of course, for that purpose nothing is better than Fiestaware! Got 7 wonderful plates which colors matched perfectly my Santa Fe ones; one of each color. When we have guests, they love that colorful pile of plates displayed on the buffet. It's very... more info
entertainment ware:
I have these plates in multiple colors and this one is a favorite. I use them as interesting and colorful dishes for entertaining.
I've got these in Sunflower Yellow and I like the size and color:
These are big sturdy plates that look good on the table and would fit the decor of most kitchens: especially urban-loft look (if you go for the bright primary colors like black, white, and red) or the rustic cottage look (if you go for the earth tones). How's that for versatility? Aside from that, they're a good size and weight when you're handling them (e.g., washing the dishes, serving up food). These plates have enough surface area not to squeeze your various food groups together. I've ordered from... more info
