Lapis
In production2013–present · Color No. 337
Introducing Lapis, made by The Fiesta Tableware Company from 2013 to current production. It's a deep and majestic shade of blue, reminiscent of the rich hue of lapis lazuli gemstones. Lapis adds a touch of elegance and sophistication to any tablescape. Mix and match Lapis with colors like Ivory and Lemongrass for a classic and refined table setting, or pair it with Plum and Slate for a more subdued yet luxurious combination.
If you own Lapis, set the table with these
5 combinations, every one built only from colors Fiesta has actually produced. Each says which rule it follows, and which pieces you can still buy today.

Every color here is from the blue family, arranged light to dark. A single-family table reads calm and deliberate rather than busy.
Three-way split
Heather and Shamrock sit about a third of the way around the color wheel from Lapis in each direction. Evenly spaced hues stay lively without any one taking over.
