The Vintage Fiesta line suprisingly did not include a butter dish. Vintage Fiesta collectors dip into the other pottery lines of Harlequin and Riviera, which in turn borrowed the butter shape from the Century and Jade Homer Laughlin lines, to add the butter shape to their collections. All examples are becomingly increasingly hard to find, especially in excellent condition. These items are considered scarce.
Circa 1938-1941: Collectors of solid color vintage Homer Laughlin China will appreciate how hard it is to find the butter dishes, especially in the earliest colors, such as this example in maroon. What a great addition to the collection!

Circa 1938-1948: The butter dish was part of the first expansion to the Harlequin line after two years of successful sales at Woolworth's five-and-dime stores. It was in production for roughly a decade before being discontinued.

The small quarter pound butter dish from the Riviera line will be found in the four original solid colors of mauve blue, harlequin yellow, fiesta green and original red. All are extremely hard to find.
Circa 1936-1944: While there was never a butter dish designed for the original Fiestaware line, Homer Laughlin looked to their many other pottery collections and pulled from both their Century and Jade examples. The small quarter pound version will be found dipped in the Riviera colors of Harlequin blue (mauve), yellow, original Fiesta green and red.
