Fiestaware was introduced in 1936, discontinued in 1973, and resuscitated in 1986 for a public already consumed with collecting original Fiestaware. Today's Fiestaware merges old and new: the same molds are used to create the famous streamlined art deco design, but new colors and a lead-free glaze are contemporary enhancements. Build a Fiestaware collection by buying dinnerware and accessories all in one color, or buy pieces in assorted colors for a playful, eclectic set. These wide, flat bowls are great for soups, stews, pastas, or even sauce-covered casseroles or meats. The extended flat rim decreases the risk of spilling, and the shallow depth makes for a pretty presentation, especially when serving delicate soups with a dollop of crème fraîche or a sprig of fresh herbs.
