Large Ice Tub

Item Number: 433
Approximate Size: 6½” D – 4½” H
Production Dates: 1916-1958

This is the second Ice Tub produced in the American 2056 line. A separate Ice Tub Plate was also available for purchase, often paired with the Ice Tub. They were not sold as a set, even though they were often used and shown together. Each piece was sold separately.

Fostoria American Ice Tubs You will often see the Ice Tubs sold without the Plates, and this could be for a variety of reasons. Over the years, people might have thought the Ice Tub Plate was just another ordinary plate and separated it from the Ice Tub – or the Ice Tub was originally bought separately (without the Plate).

The American pattern produced two Ice Tubs of different sizes. The larger one is featured on the right, and the smaller Ice Tub (with a 5⅝” diameter) is featured on the left.

Protecting your American Glassware

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! ♥
