FOSTORIA - Part 3
ALEXIS Vase and Almond Cup
Courtesy Jerry and Carol Curtis
ALEXIS Vase and Almond Cup: These unusual pieces belong to Jerry and Carol Curtis and were identified by Don Crabb of the Fostoria Museum. The Alexis pattern was part of Fostoria's #1630 line of crystal products made between 1909 -1925. Mr. Crabb commented that he had never seen marigold examples, which leads to the conclusion these were iridized in after-market circumstances.
The lovely linear type vase stands 9 ½” tall and is sometimes called a “bouquet holder”. The almond cup, 1 ¾” tall, is often referred to as a “salt dip”.
VOGUE is the pattern for this Toothpick Holder.
It is about 2.5 in. tall, said to be very desirable with a value of $250.
VOGUE Toothpick Holder: is very likely another item which was iridized for after -market sales. It has been seen infrequently in carnival glass circles for many years in light marigold finish.
BROCADED POPPY Tumbler - Ice Green
Courtesy Bob Smith
BROCADED POPPY Tumbler: A “find” of this caliber for a tumbler collector is downright magnanimous! When Bob Smith contacted us with his newfound joy, “his cup runneth over” in telling us that he believes this to be the first ever found! The etched design proved very difficult to capture in a photograph. The light shade of ice green somehow creates shadows difficult to encompass. This lovely tumbler stands 4 7/8”. There is also an ice green ice bucket in this pattern. A server and compote are known in pink Brocaded Poppy. We thank Bob for allowing us to be the first to show our viewers this rare tumbler.

The Lord is righteous in all His ways, gracious in all His works. The Lord is near to all who call upon Him,
To all who call upon Him in truth. He will fulfill the desire of those who fear Him;
He also will hear their cry and save them. The Lord preserves all who love Him, but all the wicked He will destroy.
My mouth shall speak the praise of the Lord, and all flesh shall bless His holy name forever and ever.
Psalm 145:17-21
