Hi, It has been awhile since I posted but I recently acquired these pieces and wanted to share. While not sterling pieces, they are sterling overlay. Both are made by Fostoria glass but the decoration is by another company (Rockwell I believe). The first is the 2387 vase, designed by George Sakier. It was made in ebony from 1930-1932: The second is the Fostoria 2373 window box, also in ebony made from 1928-1932. Cheers! Chase PS, if someone can edit the title, I would appreciate it!

Very cool indeed! I've never seen anything like these.......is there a name for this sort of work? I think of Fostoria as a glassmaker.....by 'ebony' did you mean ebony-colored glass? Or is this a polished/laquered ebony wood? IP: Logged |

Hi, Thanks for the nice compliments! Yes Fostoria was a glassmaker. It is another collection that I love and started collecting way before I did sterling items. This is considered sterling overlay which leaves a much thicker layer of silver as opposed to silver deposit which is much thinner. If you run your fingers along the edges of the silver you can feel how thick it is. IP: Logged |
