Punch Bowls, Cups, & More
While Fostoria American Punch Bowl Bases (the Low Foot or High Foot) and Centerpieces might look similar at first glance, there is one distinguishing difference between them. Most times, the true supports for the punch bowls (whatever the foot size) will not have a rayed center in their glass base. Punch bowls just sit more securely on a non-rayed base.
For example, when Fostoria shipped out the 7″ Flared Vase (601), it was usually sent with a rayed center. In contrast, when this dual-purpose item was shipped as the High Foot for the 14″ Punch Bowl, it was typically sent out with a plain, non-rayed center.
Please Note: Punch and/or Custard Cups are listed in this section, as well as in the Drinkware and Stemware section.
