Fostoria American Water Cress SetThe Water Cress Plate was not available as a separate item and was sold with the Water Cress.  The Water Cress is about 2½” high, and the Water Cress Plate is about 8″ in diameter.  The plate is about an 1″ high, with the sides caressing and following the lines of the bowl that sits above it.  The sole purpose of the Water Cress Plate is to catch the water as it drips down from the bowl.  This is perfection at its finest – in function, form, and design.

As an eBay Partner, I may be compensated if you make a purchase on eBay.  The following link shows available Watercress-related items on eBay.  Please note that these type of pieces rarely show up online.  The plates are often misidentified, so be sure to look for the 8″ size, with upward-turning sides.

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!  ♥
