Vintage Ivory

I'm joining in on Cindy's Show and Tell Friday over at
My Romantic Home
Come on over and take a look!


I'm joining in on Vintage Thingies Thursday over at Coloradolady today.
Bring some of your favorite vintage things and join in the fun!


Today's post is all about Vintage Ivory Fiesta first produced by the Homer Laughlin
China Company in 1936.  Ivory or Old Ivory as it is referred to in this original brochure
from 1936 is one of the original colors produced in this iconic line of dinnerware.
Fiesta is still produced right here in the USA by Homer Laughlin.
It stands alone as the finest US china company still producing its wares.

This brochure contains no pricing, but I do have an example with the pricing in my ephemera collection.  You can see many examples of the ephemera that I collect related to Homer Laughlin China on another of my blogs "The Pottery Papers" ©
Here are some examples of vintage Fiesta in Ivory from my collection.

The lucite racks for the plates, bowls and the relish tray are made especially for these
vintage Fiesta items by a fellow collector.  The vintage metal accessory pieces were made
especially for the vintage Fiesta items by Royal Chrome.

And here is the first known print example of Fiesta.

The image was taken by Margaret Bourke White and was included in an article entitled"
A Bride's First Buffet" and was printed in the 1936 Delineator Magazine.


Tune in next week when I'll feature another of the original colors of vintage Fiesta.
Thanks for stopping by for another Vintage Thingies Thursday here on The Little Round Table!
You can see the vintage tablecloth pictured on the table with my vintage ivory
in this week's Tablescape Thursday post.
