Homer Laughlin - Riviera

HLC introduced Riviera in 1938 and until around 1950 sold the line exclusively through the Murphy Company. Riviera is essentially items on the Century shape with a solid colored glaze. The Riviera colors are harlequin yellow, ivory, light green, mauve blue and red. Compared to Fiesta or Harlequin, the Riviera line was more limited.

It also cost less, because it was unmarked and weighed less. On rare occasion will one find a Homer Laughlin gold stamp. It was actually the decendent of an earlier line of dinnerware called Ivory Century.

Essentially, the designer applied the colored designs to the white pieces, and thus Riviera was born.
