After the success of Fiesta by the Homer Laughlin China Company, other potteries started to create their own line of solid colored dinnerware. In late 1937, Taylor, Smith & Taylor began production of Vistosa. It was made in colors very similar to HLC's Fiesta; red, yellow, green and blue. One trade write up from 1938 described the new embossed shape: One of the interesting pieces in the "Vistosa" shape of color dinnerware, recently introduced by the Taylor, Smith & Taylor Co., East Liverpool, is the chop plate. This is made in two sizes. The richly embossed shoulders of "Vistosa" add a most artistic touch to the flatware as well as to the bowls and pitchers. Production of "Vistosa," a word derived from Spanish and meaning "to brighten: to make cheerful", is being stepped up as the new addition to the Taylor, Smith & Taylor Co. pottery gets into full production. The "Vistosa" is made in a new addition to the pottery so that the gay colors can be controlled accurately throughout the production process. "Vistosa" ware is for table use at all hours and for all occasions, including regular meals, luncheons, and parties. It is produced in bright shades of red, blue, yellow, and green. This selection offers the housewife a wide choice of color combinations. Shipment of "Vistosa" to department stores has been increasing, including re-orders as the result of consumer acceptance.
