Fire King - Dinnerware

Fire King was a line of the Anchor Hocking Glass Company which began in 1941 and continued into the 1970s. They produced dinner, glass and tableware in numerous patterns and colors but are probably most well-known for their Jade-ite pieces. I offer quite a selection of mugs as well as other items. Pieces are found in Dinnerware, Kitchenware and Glassware.

Alice

As far as I know, Fire King produced the Alice pattern in jade-ite, ivory with blue trim,and white with blue trim. It is characterized by a draping floral garland around the rim.

Anchorwhite

This pattern by Fire King is an opaque white colored glass.

Bc Bowls

These cute cereal bowls were obviously designed with children in mind. They sport cave men and dinosaurs.

Candleglow

The Fire King Candleglow pattern uses an Anchorwhite background with blue and gold candles in a row around the sides.

Charm

Fire King Charm is a popular holiday pattern. I have seen it in Royal Ruby and Forest Green and fairly recently reissued in crystal. The pieces have a square shape to them and a radiant pattern in the bottom.

Copper-Tint

Fire King Copper Tint is often confused with the Lustre pattern. It was used for several different kitchen items, such as casseroles and custard dishes.

Day Breaker Floral

The Fire King Day Breaker pattern is actually two floral patterns in one. One side has a red daisy-like flower and the other, an orange, poppy-like flower.

Fire King Wheat

Fire King Wheat dinnerware is very similar to Homer Laughlin and Taylor, Smith and Taylor's wheat patterns. It features three sprigs of wheat on white glass.

Golden Anniversary

Golden Anniversary by Fire King is white opaque glass withe scalloped border and a thick gold trim. It came out in the 1950s.

Golden Shell

Fire King's Golden Shell is much like Golden Anniversary. It has the same opaque white glass and swirls but the gold trim is much finer.

Granite Ware

Fire King's Granite Ware has a dark background color with flecks of white to give the appearance of granite.

Jade-ite

Jade-ite was the name Fire King gave to its line of jade green glassware. Items made of jade-ite were often found in restaurants in the 1940s. The original Jade-ite was made from the 1940s to the 1960s. However, lately it is being reproduced.

Kimberly

Fire King's Kimberly design came in a variety of colors and pieces. The design itself was a pattern of bumpy and smooth recessed diamonds.

McDonald’s

Fire King produced many items for various companies fo promotional purposes. The McDonald mug is just one example.

Meadow Green

Fire King's Meadow Green was a pattern with a green and gold quadruple leaf design flanked on each side by a green and gold floral design. The glass base was white opaque.

Peach Lustre Laurel

Fire King/Anchor Hocking produced Peach Lustre Laurel from 1952 to 1963. The Laurel pattern was also produced in Gray.

Peach Lustre Shell

Fire King made items in the lustre color from the 1950s to the 1970s. The color is similar to the copper tint but has a slightly different sheen.

Petite Potager

We don't know yet if this pattern is unique to these individual casseroles or not. Pictured on the casseroles are an artichoke, bell pepper, tomato, onion and what looks to be perhaps a califlower or small head of lettuce.

Primrose

The Primrose pattern by Fire King was popular in the 1960s. It features red and pink flowers on an Anchorwhite background.

Stacking Mugs

Fire King made several colors of stacking mugs. True to their names, these mugs stack nicely, one upon the other.

Swirl

Fire King made the Swirl pattern in several colors such as Anchorwhite, Jade-ite, Azurite and Peach Lustre.

Unknown Fire King

Anchor Hocking/Fire King produced numerous patterns. I have not been able to identify all of them as yet (I keep trying). Some items are, therefore, listed here.
