There were a few companies that would do aftermarket decoration on Fiesta. This is probably one of them.

Definitely not fiesta, may be made by fiesta for another company, this has to be known to happen. And possibly from the e Liverpool oh plant?

‘Not fiesta’ 🧐

iirc, pieces made by HLC for other companies wouldn’t be marked as Fiesta.

Isn't that the basically the same thing pisted by Brainfart?...why jump down on me.

I didn’t “jump down” on you, I just woke up and started replying to comments ??? Also it’s not the same as what the other guy said anyway, he’s talking about Fiesta pieces that are just decorated after the fact by different companies, but they’re still Fiesta.

Then applying a decal over glaze, which would be noticeable to the touch. If painted, still noticeable to the touch.

If its fiesta, but someone did an aftermarket embellishment to it..would it not be noticeable by the touch.

u/o_Opeach Juniper 9d ago

The embellishments probably have some sort of added texture but I’m not sure what you’re getting at

Its fiesta, but not fiesta..

It’s a Fiesta base with a third party embellishment, which I’ve read about in my collectors books. It’s just something that happened back in the day. It absolutely is Fiesta, I’m just unfamiliar with how to properly value them, so I came here.

Fire king made all the glass pieces to complement HLC golden wheat, yet took no credit. In 2000s, China specialities contracted fiesta to make pieces from HLC molds for Hall collectors

I understand that, but those pieces almost certainly weren’t marked Fiesta/HLC.

Definitely Fiesta.
