I haven’t looked at this listing for a long time.  But now that I am looking at the photo I think that I misnamed it originally.  I think that the piece is from Cambridge Glass with etch Rose Point.

I no longer have the piece to verify the ID, but I think Rose Point is the better bet.

Original Listing – May 24, 2012

I’ve a number of pieces of this pattern – water goblets, one champagne stem, and various serving pieces.  I bought this at an auction in Brighton with the other serving pieces.

I can’t find this particular dish online, but I am guessing that it is a handled cake plate.  It has a one inch base, so it is likely for cakes or cookies.  These pieces are pretty, but they take up so much storage room.  Right now this one lives in a cedar chest with other pieces (and other collectible stuff) that have no public showing.

fostoria-buttercupI had never  come across this pretty etch – #340 – until last weekend.  I didn’t know what the etch was when I picked them up, but I didn’t guess buttercups.  I always think everything is a rose, despite the lack of looking like a rose!

The  stem is #6030 – Astrid.  Very pretty details.

According to Replacements these pieces were produced from 1942-1959.

fostoria-heather-wine-1Up until very recently I had not purchased additional pieces with this plate etch.  But I thought that these claret wine glasses were dainty and attractive with the optic.  I picked them up somewhere on our road trip to Washington, D.C.

The line is Silver Flutes #6037 and the Heather etch is #343.

This is a pretty little comport.  I don’t think I’ve ever put fruit or candy or jam or anything for that matter in to it.  It mainly lives on a shelf.  I think that Heather is a relatively readily available etch.  Not as ornate as others.  Don’t think I’d buy any other pieces in this pattern.  I’m not much for serving pieces in any event.
