Item Number: 487
Height: 3¾”
Production Dates: 1934-1965
I seem to like quite a few of the condiment-style dishes in the American line, and the Mustard piece is no exception. If intact and original, the Mustard piece will include a total of three items – the Mustard dish, a Cover, and a Spoon. The authentic Fostoria Spoon is glass, not metal. The Mustard has an approximate height of 3¾” (from the bottom to the top of the Cover).
The Mustard dish is an item that you can still find today. It was produced for about thirty years. That being said, what is more difficult is finding the three pieces (Mustard, Cover, and Spoon) all together. Many times you will find the Mustard and Cover, or just the Mustard by itself. You might also find the Mustard and Cover and a replacement spoon (not original to the piece), made out of metal or silver.
Here is a picture of all three original elements – the Mustard, the Cover, and the Spoon. Notice that the Cover has a notch in it, just big enough for the glass Spoon to sit in the Mustard dish comfortably.
