I also like Fiestaware and have my share.  Smiley Happy

 

So, another new color - I cannot help wondering if it will be another blue or another green.   That's what it always seems.   

 

Most of mine are the red color (Scarlet?).   I also have some in black and some of the little pieces where I'd get a variety I have the tangerine type shade and the purple shade, along with the reds and blacks.  (yeah, I'm kinda boring)  Smiley Happy   I think there's a dark grey type shade that I might have a little bit of also.

 

Does anybody else remember a conversation about Fiesta quite a few years ago here where somebody mentioned that very small three-legged bowl?   I thought that was pretty cool and managed to get a black one.  Whenever I look at it (it's out all the time) I think about that and wonder why I didn't get a couple more colors, just for fun.   I forgot what it was called.

I'm hoping for something different like magenta, not that I need any more!

I am guessing this year's color might be a neutral, like a deep beige or tan. They've definitely had a lot of blues and greens over the past few years, so a more universal color might be a good balance with all the brighter tones.

@10sluvr - Yes, they have Slate, which is a beautiful medium grey (it looks a bit darker in this image from the Fiesta website than it does in person):

Was wondering about this years color! I have all the colors in my collection--well not ALL the colorsWoman Wink have the current ones as well as a few pieces of vintage colors. I try to get a few pieces of the new color every year. I just bought the star dish--so cute--and 5 other 9"  Xmas plates and displayed them for the holiday. they were on sale at very good prices and couldn't resist.

I wonder if we have the same Halloween bowl. 

 

I have one that's all orange with a jack o lantern face in black on one side.  It's like a large-ish chili bowl type of bowl.  I really like it!  Smiley Happy

 

Yeah, that grey shade, as somebody else showed after your post is kind of nice (I like greys, especially darker shades).

Re: New Fiesta Color

[ Edited ]

@chickenbutt @10sluvr 

       I also have a Halloween bowl in orange. It has a design of black cats and witch hats all around the bowl. About 20 years ago, I bought one for myself and one for my daughter in law whose birthday is Halloween. It sits on my coffee table in October, holding candy.

      For December, I have a plain scarlet red bowl that holds Christmas candy.

      In the 1970's my grandmother gave me all of her old original

Fiesta and that started me collecting serving pieces and adding all the colors. My five children, first husband and I used them every day. Not a piece got chipped or broken, and the older Fiesta chipped easily. ( one salt shaker did break, when it fell off the table).

 

      Fast forward to 1992, when I married my second husband.

He is the proverbial bull in the china shop. Within a couple of months, I started to notice that my nappies (bowls) looked like

they had bites taken from their rims and other pieces were chipped. So, I packed up about 100 pieces of old Fiesta to store in the basement. I began my new heavier , more durable Fiesta

collecting. They were popular for restaurant use in their newer

line. I started to collect every color place setting, but ran out of room to keep that up. I have given some place settings of my least favorite colors to my grandson. He and his wife are very happy with them and their two little girls have place settings of their favorite colors, periwinkle  and rose.

 

     Now I only collect new colors  that I like with a small fruit dish, not place settings.
