The Fostoria Glass Company made a few Jelly or Jam pieces in the American pattern – one of which was the Jelly and Cover. Looking like a candy dish, many people might classify it as such. While the Jelly and Cover was originally described and named for serving just that, this beautiful dish will also serve candy and other small foods rather nicely.
Back when this piece was first introduced over a hundred years ago, serving jelly or dessert in this type of glassware was very popular. The Jelly and Cover is approximately 6¾″ to 7″ in height, and about 4½″ in diameter. It is one of the pioneering pieces in the line, debuting in the first Fostoria American 1915 Catalog Supplement. With an amazing production life, it was still being manufactured right up until the early 1980s.
