Apricot Fiesta Production: 1986 – December 31, 1998
Mr. Apricot is now Disarmed
Homer Laughlin China Co. pruned their Fiesta dinnerware line in 1998 by retiring its soft-looking color apricot. Apricot was one of the original five colors in the Post-86 line that HLC unveiled in 1986. This is a good example of how the orginal sets of pastels, such as rose, have transitioned to brighter, sharper ones.
By today’s standards, apricot may appear subdued. Nevertheless the dishes are very pretty, whether it be a formal place setting or dish ware for casual dining.
Collectors and sellers sell Apricot Fiesta dishes online every day. Check here for the current list of auctions and Buy It Now specials.
