Millennium
If the lives of civilizations are measured in terms of millennia, would it be too much to mark a milestone in Fiesta with the production of the line’s three Millennium Vases?
Homer Laughlin produced a set of three special vases to commemorate the turn of the century. Pulling out all of the stops, these featured beautiful designs, ran limited quantities, and only sold them to specific sales outlets. The vases are marked with their names on the underside.
To emphasize the importance of these vases, they are numbered with Roman numerals as opposed to the awfully common Arabic numbers. With every new year these pieces become more prized.
Millennium I Vase
The Millennium I Vase (HLC Item Code 425) is the most valuable of the three. It was produced as an exclusive for sale at Bloomingdale’s, and just 1000 pieces of each current color were made.
Millennium II Vase
The Millennium II Vase (HLC Item Code 438) is a stunning looking piece produced for a limited time and sold through Federated Department Stores.
Millennium III Vase
The Millennium III Vase (HLC Item Code 445) was an exclusive to the HLC Factory Outlet.
