The very first item to debut was in 1915, and it was the larger 11½” Oval.  The other two smaller Ovals were introduced in 1916.  Out of the three different sizes, the smaller 9″ Oval had the shortest life – only being produced until the late 1920s.  The 10″ Floating Garden (Oval) debuted in 1916 and it’s last year of production was in 1973.  The larger 11½” Floating Garden (Oval) was produced from 1915-1958.  The Floating Gardens were primarily in constant production throughout their lives; however, there were a few intermittent years during wartime when they were dropped from the 2056 production line.

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!  ♥
