Vintage Fiesta & Harlequin Homer Laughlin Pottery in the Original Medium Green Glaze | Circa 1959-1969

The medium green vintage Fiesta glaze has the distinction of being the final color added to the original fiestaware pottery line. The '60s psychedelic era, awash in paisely patterns and elaborate decoration, left little room for the solid color mix-n-match tableware. Far fewer fiestaware pieces will be found dipped in the medium green glaze than in the previous ten vintage colors. Standard fiestaware pieces such as the cream soup bowl, 4 3/4" fruit bowl and the dessert bowl were discontinued within months after the medium green colored glaze made its way to market. Verifying an item is medium green can be tricky and takes an expert to know the difference. The final four color ensemble was formed when the newly introduced medium green was combined with the reintroduction of original red and the longstanding colors of yellow and turquoise. Collectors of Fiesta pottery will cherish their pieces in the original vintage 1960s medium green glaze. Twenty three pieces make up the entire selection in the medium green glaze. Ambitious collectors can continue their hunt in the Harlequin shapes which will also prove hard to find in medium green.
