American-Clear by Fostoria
|
This month we feature one of our most popular crystal patterns, American-Clear by Fostoria. Fostoria’s American-Clear (also
known as Early American) was designed by Phillip Ebeling in 1915. The
design was immediately patented and the pattern quickly became one of Fostoria’s
best selling patterns. Each piece in this heavy, pressed-glass line features
a prismatic cube design that rests atop a multi-faceted, smooth stem and hexagonal
base. At the time the pattern was introduced in 1915, the Fostoria Glass
Company designers wrote the following description - “It is impossible to
produce by illustration the real appearance of this design, which is prismatic
in effect; by either artificial or sun light it produces all the ‘prismatic’ fire
to a greater extent than any table glassware pattern that we have ever produced.” What
a great description, but they had to write an attention-grabbing one since there
were not a lot of photo-filled product catalogs in 1915! If you set your
table with this pattern, you’ll see what the writers meant by “prismatic
fire”, these pieces are gorgeous. American-Clear was Fostoria’s
bestselling pattern for 67 years and the design itself has become a part of American
history. The American-Clear pattern includes more than 400 documented
piece types, with many other rare concept pieces in circulation, but which have
not been catalogued. This month, we highlight many of the very rare and collectible
pieces we offer for sale in this amazing glass pattern. By following the
