Sage
Retired2015–2018 · Color No. 340
Introducing Sage, made by The Fiesta Tableware Company from 2015 to 2018. It's a soft and earthy shade of green, reminiscent of the aromatic herb sage. Sage adds a touch of natural elegance and tranquility to any tablescape. Mix and match Sage with colors like Ivory and Lemongrass for a fresh and calming table setting, or pair it with Plum and Poppy for a more vibrant and eclectic combination.
If you own Sage, set the table with these

Opposite on the wheel
Lavender sits roughly opposite Sage in hue, which is the highest-contrast pairing the palette offers. The neutrals keep it from shouting.
All green

Three-way split
Juniper and Heather sit about a third of the way around the color wheel from Sage in each direction. Evenly spaced hues stay lively without any one taking over.
