Facts for Fire King Collectors
In 1971, FDA first set limits on lead in dishware. Under the agency’s rules (updated in 1993), dishware (flatware) cannot leach more than 3 micrograms of lead per milliliter of solution.
But what about the dishware before 1971? What about vintage Fire King? More specifically, what about Jadite? Is it safe to use everyday? Well I’m happy to tell you that Fire King is lead free, that includes vintage. If you have more questions, visit HERE for more answers to frequently asked questions.

Vintage fire king is definitely not all safe. Some might be, but what I’ve seen typically tests VERY high in lead.
Fire King has never used lead in their dinnerware. NEVER.
