"Pedestal" is not a proper name for this experimental line. However, since it describes the distinct foot found on the hollowware, I am using it as an unofficial name. All of the examples and drawings are from the collection of The Fiesta® Tableware Company.
There were only four pieces of hollowware modeled for Pedestal in late 1969: teacup, sugar, creamer, and a coffee pot. There was no flatware designed for this line. Most likely it would have used pieces from existing lines in the same manner as Vogue, Bristol, and several others.
