Object Type: Disk Pitcher | Style: Fiesta, Fiestaware |
Color: Original Green | Original/Reproduction: Vintage Original |
Brand: Fiesta, Fiestaware |
From a line commissioned for the Planetarium Shop at the American Museum of Natural History in NYC, production was very limited and sold exclusively through the Museum's Planetarium shop.
Bottom markings include a raised H which indicates that these were produced from an o...riginal mold. I believe made around 1998/99, after which the color chartreuse was discontinued. Awesome cosmic/space/solar system decorated pitcher is not just already technically 'vintage', but as it happens, also already a very scarce and increasingly hard to come by Fiesta collectors item.
If you like this design, I also have up for sale a matching pair of American Museum of Natural History solar system decorated candle holders plus other coordinating color ( undecorated) chartreuse/lime green Fiesta soup/cereal bowls and 7 1/2" flat plates in multiples.
Pitcher is in excellent pre-owned condition without chips, cracks, or surface scratches. It has just one teeny tiny spot of wear from a little rub on the gold area on one side of pitcher ( barely noticeable). Looks like just kept on display for the past 20 years or so and not used.
Measures approximately 7 1/2" height x 8 3/4" length from handle to spout x 5 inches depth. No original box but retains the American Museum of Natural History sticker.
