Vintage Fiesta All Turquoise Relish Tray

Circa 1937-1946: The original turquoise glaze was a little late the the Homer Laughlin China Company's fiesta, becoming the sixth color of the long running dinnerware line in 1937, a year after Fiestaware's release, and would remain in production for the next thirty-two years. Turquoise was reintroduced to the modern Fiesta line in 1988 and is still in production today, a testament to the glaze's timeless popularity.

This beautiful six piece vintage Fiestaware original turquoise relish tray consists of a fully embossed collection of bottom marks, including four thick-walled inserts, all without chips, cracks, or repairs. Please note typical in the making glaze variation on the underside of the tray where it is not visually distracting. The quality of the glaze in this example is exactly what collectors want: a deep, bright, and shiny oceanic blue, the blue of mysterious waters and cloudless skies. Finding a fully marked turquoise relish tray complete with desirable thick-walled inserts is a difficult endeavor, making this a truly advanced piece for the discerning collector.

This relish tray has it all— collector quality condition, highly coveted shape, early signed and thick-walled components, and beautiful glaze— and, as always, it is guaranteed to please.
