1700 Line Jadeite Dishes: Fire-King Pattern Guide

Fire-King Jadeite 1700 Line Identification Guide

How to Identify the Fire-King 1700 Line Design

The 1700 Line can be confusing to identify because it shares characteristics with other Jadeite dish patterns such as Restaurant Ware and Jane Ray.

The dinner plate, St. Denis cup and saucer looks like a Jane Ray cup, but without the rayed design. Much like how Jane Ray is a made up term by collectors, these are referred to as “Plain Jane.”

The 1700 Line dinner plate also gets confused with the Restaurant Ware dinner plate because it’s plain, but it is larger than the Restaurant Ware plate, and not nearly as thick.

Again, the Ransom cup looks just like a Jane Ray cup, but without the rayed design.

The St. Denis cup, St. Denis saucer, and the 9 ¼” dinner plate of the 1700 Line are also part of the Breakfast Set, so that’s why you’ll often see these two patterns mentioned together.

Collector’s Notes on 1700 Line Fire-King Jadeite Dishes

The 1700 Line Jadiete dishes can be difficult to collect because only a few different pieces were made.

I am not sure why it’s called the 1700 Line. I haven’t seen any original Anchor Hocking advertisements calling the pattern by that name so it may be a collector’s term?

Years Made

1700 Line Jadeite dishes were produced from 1946 to 1958.

Other Colors

Along with Jade-ite, the 1700 Line was also produced in:

  • Milk White
  • Ivory

These colors included different pieces that were never made in Jadeite including a platter, salad plate and a serving bowl.

Fire-King Markings for 1700 Line Jadeite Dishes

Because 1700 Line Jadeite dishes were made in the late 40s and 1950s, you’ll see the Fire-King mark with and without the “MADE IN U.S.A” mark. A general rule of thumb with Fire-King markings is the less descriptive the marking, the older the dish is.

Look for these marks:

  • OVEN Fire-King GLASS
  • OVEN Fire-King WARE
  • OVEN Fire-King WARE MADE IN U.S.A)
