Fostoria | American | SweetPea VaseThe Fostoria American Sweetpea Vase is just that – sweet.  While most people today spell “sweet pea” as two separate words, the Fostoria Glass Company did describe and spell the vase as one word – “Sweetpea”.  With a bowl shape, the sides gradually flow upward and outward.  Instead of a serrated top edge, this vase’s edging is clear and smooth.

The Sweetpea Vase is approximately 4½” high, with a top opening of about 7″. The bottom of the vase has a ray or petal-like design, and is about 3″ in diameter.  When viewing the Sweetpea Vase online – or in pictures – the size can be deceiving.  It looks small; much like a cup.  It is not small or slight in weight. A hefty piece of glass it is, and quite substantial.

The Sweetpea Vase is not a rare piece; however, it is not common either.  It was produced at the Fostoria Glass Factory from around 1935 – 1958.  The form and shape of this lovely vase is just perfect for making a floral arrangement with delicate and fragrant Sweet Pea’s.

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!  ♥
