Circa 1940-1951: Interestingly, the vintage fiesta ashtray is the only piece where the decorative bands of concentric rings are broken, in this case by the three shallow wells around the rim. Even the utilitarian ashtray is designed with flare and visual interest. Bands of rings decorate the rim, the inside bottom and even the outside around the nice glaze stamp "GENUINE fiesta HLCo USA". This example in the original green glaze is in excellent condition, with no signs of use and no damage. Richly stamped on the back and with a bold strong glaze color. Measures 6 9/16" w.
