Gigantic, oval-shaped, concave mesas that still had trouble holding the foodstuffs piled on them! I can't believe I used to be able to clean those plates by myself.

For example, the Fiesta pattern was available in a variety of smaller sizes prior to 1986, and pieces are still available from specialty shops, such as the one in my Fiesta link in the main aritcle. I'm thinking of buying nice Fiesta 9.5 inch plates, and 4.75 inch fruit bowls, still in the beloved, and original, Fiesta pattern!
