Fire King Jade Ite, also known as jadeite, is a type of glass tableware made of Jade-green opaque milk glass, popular in the United States in the mid-20th century. While jade-ite is a collector’s favorite today, it was meant to be regular, utilitarian dishware for the everyday kitchen. The green color was added to existing glass formulas in order to to add a bit of color to people’s lives during the Depression. Seeing that cheery burst of color, glass makers hoped, would brighten people’s days a little. What made jadeite popular during the mid-century as well as now is its durability. It was made to withstand high temperatures and built to last.
