Fostoria Glass
About Vintage Fostoria Glassware
Fostoria, Ohio has been home to 13 different glass companies over the years, including the famous Fostoria Glass Company, founded in 1887. Fostoria crystal is known for its distinct etched patterns, among the most famous being 'Chintz,' 'Holly,' and 'Colony.' The company's magazine, 'Creating with Crystal,' was a highly successful marketing tool. Fostoria began to sell its stock off in the 1970s, and closed down in 1983.
