Approximate Size: 10″ D; 4½″ H
Production Dates: Not shown in catalog. Believed to be late-production item.
This bowl was not featured in catalogs by Fostoria Glass; therefore, exact production dates are not known. The Footed Bowl (with a flared top) looks like a small punch bowl. There is also a colored version in Ruby, which is actually easier to find than the crystal bowl. This bowl has a smaller diameter than both the Footed Fruit Bowl (250) and the 14″ Punch Bowl (600).

The Lily Pond can be classified as many things. The shape and original purpose of the bowl was to float flowers in it. Obviously, lilies first come to mind. It is also a great dish for utilizing flower frogs, which in turn – hold and display flower arrangements. When not in use for floral purposes, it is an excellent choice for displaying fruit.
Please note that you need to be a good caregiver of the Lily Pond if using it for flower arrangements. I do not recommend leaving water in the Lily Pond for extended periods of time. Like all glass vessels, one needs to wash and dry it well after use. This is especially important to help prevent water spots from forming.

Out of the four American pieces that Fostoria Glass described as a Centerpiece, this one has the most unique shape. Unlike the others, this centerpiece has three gracefully upturned sides – and rests on three toes. It is approximately 11″ wide and 3¾″ high. Another similar-shaped item was also produced, the 3-Toed Tri-Corne. The Tri-Corne; however, was never considered a centerpiece – probably due to its smaller size.

Approximate Size: 15″ D; 4¼″ H
Production Dates: 1935-1944
Of all the centerpieces that the American pattern produced, the 15″ size is the largest and the least plentiful. Some folks refer to this piece as the “hat-shaped” centerpiece, based on how it looks. With its large diameter flaring out like a rim on a hat, it’s easy to understand the visible connection. Fostoria Glass simply called this item their 15″ Centerpiece, and it is approximately 4¼″ tall. Please note that many times this centerpiece may have a larger measurement of 16-inches. That is the measurement of the one I have in my collection. Fostoria Glass; however, described its size as 15-inches. As we all know, expect slight size variations with glass that has been finished by hand.
Being in production for less than ten years greatly impacts it current supply in the aftermarket – especially when compared to the smaller centerpieces. This item was produced from the original Hotel Cracked Ice mould, which resulted in a beautiful and distinctive center design. This same design can be seen in a couple of other pieces, such as the 18″ Torte Plate. It is, without a doubt, one of the most gorgeous and artistic pieces in the entire 2056 line. Due to its unique appearance, it is relatively easy to identify.
