In production2014–present · Color No. 338
Introducing Poppy, made by The Fiesta Tableware Company from 2014 to current production. It's a vibrant and fiery shade of orange, reminiscent of the bold hue of poppy flowers. Poppy adds a lively and energetic touch to any tablescape. Mix and match Poppy with colors like Ivory and Lemongrass for a bright and cheerful table setting, or pair it with Plum and Slate for a more sophisticated and autumnal combination.
