If you have contemporary fiestaware, did you know that you can buy fiestaware flatware and kitchen utensils that match? Many people didn’t realize that. They are very inexpensive for stainless steel utensils. Most people that I know that have these flatware sets use them daily. I put mine in the dishwasher everyday and they haven’t faded in the 2 years I have had the cobalt colored handled ones.
If you want to really jazz up your table, or kitchen check out the flatware and hostess sets. This flatware is extremely affordable with a 20 piece setting usually being less than $30.
There are different styles of Fiesta flatware. Basically there is the type with the colorful handles with a color on each grip and the set with the rainbow of colors on each piece. Most sets are backed by a 25 year warranty. One of the first sets made had some issues with not being dishwasher safe and pieces fell out of the handles. This design issue was fixed and there is a lot less issues with the pieces falling out. You still may want to hand wash the utensils though.
Amazon reviews for the sets is high. Comments include talking about how the pieces are larger than average. The spoons are more like soup spoon size. There are also comments about the weight of some sets being heavier that other Fiesta sets of the same type. If you want to make sure they all match, consider buying the 64 piece set so you are starting out with all matching pieces instead of buying individual place settings.
I have fiesta flatware made by Stanley Roberts in the 1990’s. The pattern names Fold. It’s stamped Fiesta Stainless Korea. I’m looking to buy more to add to my set. My family is grown and I need enough for everyone!
