Fostoria American Deep Nappy - 8"

Deep Nappy – 8″

Nappies

Item Number:  522
Diameter:  8″
Production Dates:  1915-1959

The 8″ Deep Nappy is another pioneering piece in the 2056 line.  Debuting in 1915, it was in production for approximately forty-four years.  When compared to other flared or regular-sized American nappies, they were more expensive to buy.  The 8″ Deep Nappy cost $2.00 in 1915, which is worth over $60 today!  When looking for deep nappies in today’s market, know that they are worthy of a few extra dollars.

One thing worth pointing out is that the original and older nappies have a ground bottom.  In other words, they were not footed.  Newer pieces were footed, and may be slightly taller than the 4¾” height.  (The footed 8″ Deep Nappy is shown in this post.)  Sizes are always approximate, and both of mine (footed and unfooted) are about the same size – with only a ⅛” height difference between them.

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!  ♥
