The 2056 line of Toppers includes some of the most under-appreciated items in the entire American pattern.  Many times they are ignored or overlooked, for when the Toppers stand empty and alone … they just don’t stir up a lot of excitement for most folks.  In truth, they are very versatile pieces which can be used for a multitude of purposes and holidays.  These hats are adorable for St. Patrick’s Day, Easter, Mother’s Day, and many other celebrations!

The smallest of these Toppers is the Topper Ash Tray.  From there, the next size up is this 2½” Topper.  When it was first introduced, it was listed as 2¼” tall, and then later it was described as being 2½” in height.  Therefore, you can expect slight size variations between those two measurements.  The top diameter is approximately 3¾”, with a clear glass rim.

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!  ♥
