Circa 1936-1946: Of all the vintage Fiesta colors, orignal yellow has the distinct honor of being the iconic American dinnerware line's longest running glaze, marketed from Fiesta 'pottery's humble beginnings in 1936 all the way through 1969, when the line was retooled as Fiesta Ironstone. Of course, the bud vase itself was only produced in the first six colors and was retired in 1946 just after the end of WWII, and this original yellow vintage Fiestaware bud vase survives in undamaged collector quality condtion, showcasing the timeless shine of its sunny glaze.
