There are often 2006 purple fiestaware pieces available on ebay. The purple dinnerware is still available also. This is part of a press release published by the Homer Laughlin Company in March 2006 to announce to the world that they were releasing the purple dinnerware:

"The key color setting this current trend is the soft-hued purple that is typically found in nature. These gentle purple shades bring a sense of balance and harmony, making them a favorite for decorating and design. Their warm hues give them an ethereal quality that helps create a unique statement."

The Homer Laughlin China Company is helping set this trend with the introduction of their Lemongrass color, square dishes, Marigold Anniversary bowls, and other great pieces.

Like the soft purple flowers it’s so aptly named after, the recent addition to the Fiesta® color family has a warm purple hue that adds a casual yet sophisticated style to any tabletop.

Homer Laughlin adds Alpha Alumina to its Fiesta® china to enhance durability, chip resistance and provide superior heat retention. All Homer Laughlin China is lead free. "

Purple will always be a collectible color in the fiestaware dinnerware line. To see new purple dinnerware, check out our page or to get a slightly used bargain, see below.
