Linen The 2025 color is Linen, a cream meant to celebrate the craft of pottery. Limited items in Linen will be available to purchase from Fiesta's Factory Direct website starting at noon on Tuesday, Jan. 14. The color is completely new to Fiesta but is reminiscent of one of its original colors www.fiestatableware.com/Personally NOT a fan. I'm about color. If you go for the all white(ish) look then I think it is pretty.. but I'm a color girl. Sad. But I haven't bought any new colors.. I am maxed out on dishes. |

The people are mad. Last year was the very pale blue Sky. Didn't buy a single item of that color. So I think we were all hoping for bright this year. Then we get this. Clay with a glaze. Ugh
And then against Ivory (which is the color of my Christmas set with the tree), it looks white and Ivory looks yellow. I was thinking okay, neutral so I can add a piece to my Christmas set.
Nope.
I am really bummed. I get Fiesta for color. Not drab and boring

Yeah, that's a bummer for me, too. Oh well. I really don't need any more dishes.

I do like the off-white, but I prefer the having colorful plates, cups, etc. I could see using this color for serving dishes, though.

I did laugh at a comment that said the sad beige moms of TikTok will eat this up LOL LOL Yes, yes we do love it. I own zero Fiesta but I would totally buy all of this. I won't because I have dishes that I like but yeah. This is right up my alley and I can totally see why the Fiesta lovers would be disappointed. |

I'm not a Fiesta person, but I do love the place settings with the new color paired with green shown on the website. I guess I'm a sad beige mom because I don't find it very appealing or appetizing to eat off cobalt blue or orange or red or pink dishes. It was also cool watching how Fiesta is made on the website.

Ok call me crazy (and some do!), but I like it. I think it would look great mixed with some of the colourful pieces. That being said, I dont own any Fiesta, so take my opinion with a grain of salt  |

I'm not a mom so I guess I'm not a sad beige mom but I like it. I think it's very elegant and it looks gorgeous up against some of the other colors. I probably won't buy any because I have more than enough Fiestaware already but I would if I needed some more. Actually, I have some Ivory and I don't like it. I would consider getting rid of it and replacing it with linen. |

After looking at the photos of it on tables, I don’t hate it. I do hate that they changed the shape of their pieces so when I buy new settings, they are sized slightly different from when I first bought my Fiestaware. I haven’t been collecting for that long (10 years maybe). I went to add some more settings this year and they are all off from my old ones.

And I thought the opposite. I like the simplicity of the all white/linen. I think it would stick out in a table scape of all colors. My set is composed of all different colors and I've been thinking about getting an all white set. I was thinking of Pfaltzgraff Filagrée because it's the same base as my Christmas dishes (Winterberry), but the dishes seem so delicate after using Fiestaware for so many years. I'm a mom, but not on TikTok. |

I love the combo of greens with the linen. It would create a beautiful table.
The light grey on the left makes my heart sing. I loved the slate, though I did not buy any (for myself) because it wasn’t compatible with what I have.

I dont have Fiestaware, but I can appreciate the colors. But not this. I could buy boring beige dishes anywhere

This is the first time I’ve ever been tempted to buy Fiesta. 😂
I think it’s gorgeous as a neutral base color with accents in other colors, like that green!

I did laugh at a comment that said the sad beige moms of TikTok will eat this up LOL Ha ha ha! That was my very first thought too! I don’t own any Fiesta because it’s too thick and heavy for me personally, but this color wouldn’t inspire me to start. It’s too reminiscent of my sad beige country looking Corelle from when I got married in 1989 which I would like to dump in favor of plain white Corelle. |

I saw it and thought it would be appealing to anti-clutter minimalist Millenials. I’m not a Fiestaware collector (I do collect dishes), but I could totally see these with last year’s blue as something I would buy (I don’t have room  ). |

I like how it looks with the green plates on the Fiesta website. I could see myself getting a couple of serving pieces in that color.

I personally think it is very pretty. Very calming and neutral that could be mixed and matched with other colors. The green they show it with on their website is lovely. However, in full disclosure I am a neutral loving gal!!!  Too much color makes me twitchy!  |

I won't because I have dishes that I like but yeah. This is right up my alley and I can totally see why the Fiesta lovers would be disappointed. Thank you for saying this. Really I'm all about everybody liking whatever they want. But this white/beige/ivory/gray thing has been done to death. You can find these types of dishes anywhere. Fiesta has a certain aesthetic that keeps people collecting the fun colors. I feel like they totally lost sight of their customer base here. My mom has been in her gray era for like 7 or 8 years now. She bought an entire set of slate when it came out. It was gray and the design appealed to her. She hasn't bought another piece of fiestaware since then because she doesn't want color. I have a feeling that this is what's going to happen with this one. And maybe they wanted to bring in people who have never bought from them before, but can they hold onto them as a customer and upsell them colorful pieces for years to come? That remains to be seen. |
