Band and Line Treatments by Homer Laughlin

maintained by Mark Gonzalez. Copyright © 2009-.
In the mid-1930s, over forty band and line treatments were developed for the Century, Wells, and Virginia Rose shapes. Some of the graduated lines patterns were also used on Fiesta. To date, Fiesta has been found with red, blue, and platinum graduated lines. Collectors commonly call these types of treatments stripes.

The table below has the more common band and line patterns from the 1930s. There are more band and line treatments on other shapes. At the bottom of the page are examples on Nautilus Ivory, Empress, and Eggshell Nautilus.
