Cup and Saucer Production: 1986 – present
“Is that a storm in your teacup, or are those just clouds in your coffee?“
-Unknown
Tempest in a Tea Cup
The Fiesta Cup and Saucer set is one of the finest elements in the line. HLC has augmented the line with an After Dinner Cup and Saucer, and the highly collectible After Dinner Stick Handle Cup and Saucer.
The teacup has undergone a number of changes over the years, subtle differences that end up being important clues to determine the item’s period of production. Unlike the vintage Fiesta teacup, the Post86 version uses the shape designed for Amberstone, Casualstone and Fiesta Ironstone in the late 1960s, which abandoned the original style for the C-handle slightly wider shape which can accommodate fatter fingers.
The teacup and saucer has been made in all Post86 colors. What is your favorite color? Happy collecting!
The Post86 Cup and Saucer is two different item numbers: Cup 452 Saucer 470.
