If you are considering whether to start a hobby in collecting Fiesta Dinnerware, allow me to do some convincing. First of all, they are known for the bright colors in the glaze used on the surface as well as the art deco style. This is pretty much the main attraction for collectors. You should at least go a retail store nearby or even online and browse through the pictures in the catalogues to gauge your interest in the designs.
Wondering how much can a piece of vintage Fiesta dinnerware be worth? Well, like any collectible item, it depends on the rarity. One example is a covered onion striped soup bowl (NB. Striped Fiesta dinnerware are very rare) can command a sum of approximately $10000.
If you wish to gain more knowledge of this hobby, there are books on the subject, such as “Fiesta, Harlequin & Kitchen Kraft Dinnerwares” and “Collector’s Encyclopedia of Fiesta”. There is also a documentary called DISHES produced by Amy Levin.
If you have already decided to go through with buying one, you can locate a Fiesta dinnerware outlet from a list on Homer Laughlin’s official website.
