I've got that lovely round shaped pitcher (in a deep purple shade)... it's
sooo retro/cute I just had to have it. I have deep orange, purple and
yellow Fiestaware bowls (for soup).

There was a thread not long ago about white dinnerware. My dinnerware is
white lattice patterned stoneware and things like this Fiestaware really
punch things up. I think that's the benefit of having white dishes. You
can accent any way you want to.
