Fostoria American Syrup and Cover

Syrup and Cover

Covered Containers

Item Number:  SV-05
Approximate Size:  5¼″ H – 8 oz.
Production Dates:  1938-1944

The Syrup & Cover was introduced in 1938, towards the end of the art-deco period.  At the time, a consumer could also purchase the Syrup, Cover, and 6″ Syrup Plate together, as a 3-piece unit.  The Syrup Plate (P-04) is also shown in the Plates, Saucers, Tortes, & Tid Bits section of this website.

The catalog data states that the Syrup is about 3¾″ high; however, that measurement is only accurate when measuring the Syrup without the Cover.  Since the Syrup & Cover was never sold without the top, the measurement I have stated above (5¼″) is referencing the height of the Syrup with the Cover on.  The holding capacity of 10 ounces was also inaccurate in the catalog data.  A more accurate holding capacity would be approximately 8 ounces, which I have disclosed above.

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!  ♥
