Footed Mayonnaise & Ladle

Item Number: 475
Approximate Size: 4⅝” H
Production Dates: 1948-1973

The American 2056 pattern offered different types of mayonnaise dishes – bowls, 2-part dishes, and footed varieties. Consumers had a choice of buying most of the mayonnaise components separately, and not in complete sets. While this post is about the Footed Mayonnaise & Ladle, please know that Fostoria Glass also offered the Footed Mayonnaise without a spoon or ladle, which is Item 476.

The Footed Mayonnaise had the shortest production life of all the American mayonnaise dishes. This is one of the reasons why this item does not appear as plentiful in the current aftermarket. This item was also the last variation of a mayonnaise dish that the American pattern offered. These factors play a role in the current pricing of the item, especially when compared to one of the more familiar mayonnaise dishes.

Protecting your American Glassware

To help prevent damage to our beloved American items, and to allow for easy identification, I like to use storage boxes. A variety of boxes are available, and some of them have windows which will allow you to quickly see the contents of the box. I also like identify each box with the item’s identification number. I no longer have to worry about the safety of my glassware. They are easy to access, and the attractive boxes keep my pantry very organized! ♥
