Evening ladies -

Nothing I like better than talking dishes and flowers! I've been collecting about 15 years and use Reissue Fiesta (1986- )as my everyday dinnerware. (Kell - I also collect bakelite flatware that I use with my vintage dishes.)The vintage stuff is used on special occasions. Sorry to have dragged us off-topic, but I bet I can find a piece of pottery with some flowers in it. :-)

The old wives-tale about vintage Fiesta and lead/radioactivity is just that.....lots of dinnerware currently on the market and in your home most likely contains lead or other heavy metals in the glaze/decal/paint.
