Heisey Tangerine
Tangerine will vary in color from a light orange to almost a true red. The color was difficult to control because the piece had to be reheated in the glory hole after it was finished to bring out the true coloring.Most pieces of Tangerine will be found in the stemware lines: #3397 Gascony, #3389 Duquesne, #3404 Spanish. The #1401 Empress pattern had two sizes of plates, a sugar & cream, and several bowls. A table setting cannot be put together in Tangerine. Favor vases are very desirable items. Any item in Tangerine will bring a high price.
