Know before you buy
This cup is designed for demitasse servings, measuring 2 1/4 inches in diameter and 2 1/2 inches in height. It is intended for small, concentrated portions like espresso rather than a standard-sized cup of coffee.
No, this specific vintage set is not dishwasher or microwave safe. We recommend hand washing to preserve the ceramic finish and the integrity of the pale yellow glaze.
The stick handle is a distinct, minimalist design feature found on specific vintage Fiestaware pieces. Unlike the traditional looped handles on modern mugs, this style features a straight, rod-like handle that offers a unique aesthetic and a different grip experience.
This Pale Yellow color was part of the Fiestaware line from 1993 to 2001. Because it has been retired for over two decades, it is considered a collectible item.
Yes, the set is crafted from durable ceramic and is suitable for everyday use. However, because it is a retired vintage piece, you should handle it with care to avoid chips or cracks.
