Fiesta Cobalt 466 Dinner Plate 10 1 2
Product Review
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 rich cobalt blue color, these plates complement Fiestaware dinnerware and accessories in cobalt 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 Product Description 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. Reader Reviews We use these plates where I work and they are awesome. I work in an assisted living facility and these dishes are used in the Alzheimer's area. Things in that area have to be durable and for the price most of the people who live there are playing, they have to be classy. Fiesta makes both of those possible. I don't know how many times these plates have fallen to the floor, but very few end up broken. Though they are a bit costly, you wouldn't have to spend a lot of money replacing them or time looking for a matching color or pattern. |
