Command attention with this stunning set of Fostoria Coin Glass, a pinnacle of American pressed glass artistry. Produced in Moundsville, West Virginia, the Coin pattern was inspired by 19th-century "U.S. Coin" glass and features frosted medallions depicting various historical American coins. This set includes the impressive 13-inch covered urn—often used as a candy jar or decorative center-piece—and the rare matching cruet, a sophisticated addition to any formal dining service or glass collection.
The covered urn is a substantial statement piece with a high-domed lid that adds a sense of mid-century grandeur to a mantle or sideboard. It is in very good condition, though it bears a few slight nicks on the inside edge of the lid—common for heavy glass-on-glass contact points and invisible when displayed. The accompanying cruet is in excellent condition, featuring its original matching coin stopper. It retains its brilliant luster, with only one minor off-color spot within the glass itself. Together, these pieces exemplify the elegance of the 1960s "Federal Revival" style and are a must-have for the serious Fostoria collector or anyone looking to add a touch of classic Americana to their home.
This item is vintage, approximately 60 years old.
