Vintage Fiestaware is a vibrant collection of colorful ceramic dinnerware produced by the Homer Laughlin China Company between 1936 and 1973. These fruit/salsa bowls feature their iconic concentric ring design finished with brightly colored glossy glazes. These bowls are from their earlier productions and date to late 1930's/early 1940's.
The bottom of the bowls are stamped with the Fiestaware logo "feista", along with "Made in USA, HLC". The bowls measure approximately 4.75" diameter and 1.25" deep.
Colors:
Radioactive Red - this color has a distinctly rich orange hue rather than a true primary red. This color is called radioactive red because the glaze was made with small amounts of uranium pre-WWII. Please note the EPA warns against using radioactive ceramics for eating or drinking, especially with acidic foods, due to potential uranium leaching. Intact pieces are generally considered safe to display or handle, but chipping or cracking increases exposure risks. Do not put into the microwave or dishwasher.
Turquoise - Please note these glazes may contain a small amount of lead, which was commonly used in glazes and paints pre-WWII. Considered food safe unless the glaze is damaged, cracked or chipped. Do not put into the microwave or dishwasher and avoid using with highly acidic foods.
Rose - Please note these glazes may contain a small amount of lead, which was commonly used in glazes and paints pre-WWII. Considered food safe unless the glaze is damaged, cracked or chipped. Do not put into the microwave or dishwasher and avoid using with highly acidic foods.
In great vintage condition with no chips.
Please note actual item colors may vary slightly in person due to photography lighting and individual screen settings.
