Fostoria American Cream Soup - Tomato BasilThe Cream Soup is one of the most elegant pieces of the American 2056 line.  It has an outward flowing shape, with a graceful handle placed on each side.  The actual bowl diameter is approximately 5″, and it stands about 2¼” high.  While this piece is beautiful enough to be served solo, it is often seen paired with the Cream Soup Plate.

When the two pieces are used together, they make for a beautiful presentation.  There are two variations of the Cream Soup Plate, and both versions aid in keeping the Cream Soup stationary.  The center of the plates will either have a raised retainer ring, or a slight depression in which to hold the Cream Soup.

Protecting your American Glassware

Storage Boxes

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!  ♥
