Does the scarlet color Fiestware show silverware marks?

Only in certain lighting, but more than the light colors but nothing as bad as colbalt blue.

I'm a newbie to fiestaware, so I can't say for sure when a piece is authentic, but my plate, large bowl, and small bowl markings are all different. The large bowls have a printed mark, the small bowls and plates have a vague engraved marking. I'm pretty sure they're all authentic because they match all the markings on the link below. But some are print, others are engraved and a little hard to read. I suspect mine are all new or relatively new. I don't know much about vintage fiestaware. Hope this link helps. http://www.texascooking.com/fiestaware/identifying_fiestaware.htm

It is there, but in such tiny letters that I don't even see it. The letters are probably a 10th of the size of the type you're reading this answer at. It's also in black, not imprinted/engraved, but lasered, so it really is not noticeable unless you're actively looking for it. And this set is VERY nice. The longer I have it, the more I like it. I especially like the knives, they have a great feel to them and a solid heft.

I believe that they were new and they matched my set of silverware except they werre shiny and new.

I haven't had any problems with our flatware. I rinse our dishes before I put them in the dishwasher so I run it on a Quick Wash. I also use only a small amount of dishwasher soap. That may be why I haven't had any problem with rust marks.

The knife blade has a two line marking (c) Reed & Barton on the first line and Stainless China on the second line. The marking must be some sort of ink or something, it is not stamped in. It is barely perceptible. The spoons and forks have a marking underneath the tang, or handle. Very good flatware, very heavy and solid, the best I have ever owned.

It is silver plated. It appears to be a thick silver plate as it does not wear off or spot after repeated washings. I am very happy with the set of Reed and Barton flatware.

Hi, I am not at home at the moment, so I cannot look to see if there any marks on it. Sorry. I'll save your email and when I get home on the weekend, I'll take a look and let you know. Good luck.

No. The main piece is silver in color, with copper handle, copper ring on bottom, and copper spout.

I have this set of silverware and the handles have a satin finish and the rest is glossy.

Judging by the set I have owned for over 10 years, there is not a lot of tarnishing. The more you use it the more polishing that is required. I am not as happy with this new set as my original. The copper seems thinner which means if you over heat it, the copper will discolor.

My experience is that the silverware does slide around a bit when the drawer is opened or closed. I have not, though, experienced any scratches.

I have one Le Creuset that's about 15 years old. And that one is stained. But my new one seems to have a different finish. So far it has not stained, even with the things I've cooked in it that should have done so. I suspect that they've upgraded or otherwise changed the finish, as it seems to be more slippery for lack of a better word.

Sorry, I have no idea. I know there was a question about a month ago asking if any owners of this silverware had pieces that rusted. At this time, I do not have any pieces that rusted.

I've been using them for a month and I don't see a single scratch mark from silverware. I use 18/10 flatware though. Perhaps the softer flatware would make marks.

None that I'm aware of. The silver colored ones are zinc plated, the dull ones are without finish.

These are wonderful dishes and the silver/gray pattern does not wash off in the dishwasher. There is no brown in the pattern. I bought these for my son/daughter-in-law 2 years ago, they use them everyday, and they have remained as nice as when they were new. If you purchase them my hope is that you will find them to be nice and that they meet your needs. Kind regards, A...
