Description
Authentic Fiesta Disc Pitcher in the classic Cobalt Blue glaze. This iconic art deco-inspired silhouette features the signature concentric rings near the top and a comfortable integrated handle. This is the large 67-ounce capacity model, standing approximately 7.25 inches tall. Perfect as a functional water pitcher or as a statement decor piece.
Key Features
The 'Disc' shape is the most iconic silhouette in the Fiesta line. Cobalt is a 'core' color that remains highly collectible and easy to match with other sets. Vitrified ceramic is dishwasher and microwave safe.
Authenticity Indicators
Distinctive concentric rings; unglazed 'dry' foot; faint 'Fiesta' stamp visible in the center of the base. The Cobalt color is consistent with HLC's post-1986 production. High confidence in authenticity.
Flaws to Note
Light shelf wear on the bottom footing. Potential 'flea bites' or pinhead-sized glaze pops (common in manufacturing) should be checked for around the rim and handle.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
eBay or Etsy for the highest reach to collectors; Facebook Marketplace for a quick local sale to avoid high shipping costs/breakage risks.
Selling Tips
Use keywords 'Fiestaware', 'Homer Laughlin', and 'Art Deco'. Shipping is the biggest hurdle; double-box this item with at least 2 inches of bubble wrap on all sides. Photograph the base clearly to show the logo and the lack of chips on the spout.
