The Mayflower pattern wine glass by Fostoria embodies the elegance and craftsmanship that defined American glassmaking in the mid-20th century. Produced between 1938 and 1954, this piece features a delicate floral etching—often described as a basket overflowing with blossoms—gracefully adorning its bowl. Its signature twisted stem adds a sculptural element, making it a standout among Fostoria’s celebrated “Master Etchings.”

Maker's Background

Founded in 1887 in Fostoria, Ohio, the Fostoria Glass Company quickly established itself as a leader in the American glassware industry. After relocating to Moundsville, West Virginia, in 1891, the company expanded its operations and reputation, becoming known for its high-quality, handmade glassware. Fostoria was a pioneer in producing complete crystal dinner services and was among the first to engage in national advertising campaigns. At its peak in the 1950s, Fostoria employed nearly 1,000 workers and produced over 8 million pieces of glassware annually. Notably, their products were chosen by U.S. Presidents from Eisenhower through Reagan, underscoring the brand's prestige and quality.

This vintage wine glass is ideal for serving both red and white wines. For optimal enjoyment, serve white wines chilled between 50–55°F and red wines slightly cooler than room temperature, around 60–65°F. The glass's design enhances the wine's bouquet and flavor profile, making it suitable for both casual gatherings and formal occasions. Pair it with classic table settings to evoke a sense of timeless elegance.
