Large Cigar Humidor

Item Number: K-03
Height: Glass Bottom 5″ H (approx.)
Production Dates: Non-Cataloged Item; Dates Not Known

First and foremost this item is a “contract” piece, a non-cataloged item. Fostoria Glass did not sell tobacco humidors to the general public; therefore, it was not featured in Fostoria catalogs. The glass bottoms (produced by Fostoria) were sold to other companies that furnished the tops. The third parties then marketed and sold the Cigar Humidors. Other humidors were offered – such as the Small Cigar Humidor, and the Tobacco Humidor.

The tops were made out of a variety of metals, often brass or bronze metal. Many of the tops for the Large Cigar Humidors will have an outside diameter of approximately 4-inches. The height of the total piece will vary, and this is obviously due to the different styles and designs of the tops that were offered. Some tops are more intricate than others, with most having a simple metal design with a knob on the top.

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! ♥
