"Thank you. Thank You. Thank You. That's exactly what it is! I've been trying to figure that out for quite a while now. I knew the sides were awfully "square" for a serving bowl for mayonnaise and the…"

Does anyone know the pattern of this 5-part 13" Relish Tray. Fostoria has several very similar trays, but none with the silver embellishment on the edges or the exact pattern. Does anyone know what…Continue

I am delighted to be part of The Vintage Village Community. Primarily, I joined because I need help identifying some items that I've inherited from my parents' estate.
Currently, I have two on-line shops:
- RosaInGlousta on Bonanza.com
- The Rose Garden on eBid.net
Both shops contain an eclectic mix of vintage/antique items from the estates and as a result of downsizing. (After 40 years of marriage, my husband and I are amazed at the number of items we've accumulated!)

"Thanks so much for your reply. A console bowl--that's a new one on me! I've heard of compotes and comports, but never a console bowl.
The bowl measures about 4-1/2 inches high and about 9 inches wide. The opening is only…"

CAROLINABLUELADY replied to RosaInGlousta's discussion Please Help with this 5-Part Relish Tray"You know, now I'm not so sure that this is the Mayfair pattern. The Mayfair pattern has scallopes along the edge - maybe not all edges but at least some on other 5-piece relish dishes that I have seen. There are a few on ebay at the…"
"Thbanks for the information. The "silver" does look very thin, but the etching looks much more substantial than any of the Fostoria patterns. The Fostoria patterns--at least to me--look very delicate. Here's a bit…"
CAROLINABLUELADY replied to RosaInGlousta's discussion Please Help with this 5-Part Relish Tray"I found the relish dish in "Elegant Glass Early, Depression, and Beyond" by Debbie and Randy Coe (3rd addition).

CheriShops - Admin replied to RosaInGlousta's discussion Please Help with this 5-Part Relish Tray"Hi Rosa
the actual pattern is not yet ID'd.
As Catisfaction mentioned, the blank tray by Fostoria was called "Mayfair"
But the etch (it looks etched yes rather than wheel cut?) is what we are still trying to find
It really…"
Catisfaction replied to RosaInGlousta's discussion Please Help with this 5-Part Relish Tray"The silver metal is probably added by another company, I don't know that fostoria did any of their own metal work.
What I will look for (tomorrow cause I have to go out in a few) is the cut pattern, which might be Fostoria or might also have…"
"Thank you so much. So, is it Fostoria Mayfair? And, does the Mayfair Pattern come with the silver metal. Could the silver metal be chrome?
Thanks."
CheriShops - Admin replied to RosaInGlousta's discussion Please Help with this 5-Part Relish Tray"Helen I looked in Weatherman's "Fostoria, It's First 50 years"
but it was a very quick page through so my have missed the pattern name"
Catisfaction replied to RosaInGlousta's discussion Please Help with this 5-Part Relish Tray"It is a Fostoria Mayfair relish tray.
Cheri, which Fostoria book did you look through? I've got the Fostoria Value Guide by Emily Seate which has a huge array of patterns shown in it. I'll have a look through if you haven't…"
CheriShops - Admin replied to RosaInGlousta's discussion Please Help with this 5-Part Relish Tray"It does look like a Fostoria tray but a quick look though my Fostoria book by Weatherman did not show this pattern.
I wonder if this might be a Fostoria blank decorated by Lotus Co?"

Otherwise, I don't really know anything other than I want it."
CAROLINABLUELADY replied to RosaInGlousta's discussion Please Help with this 5-Part Relish Tray"I don't know who made this, but this is very, very pretty. The lacy silver metal trim really enhances the etched design. Don't think I have ever seen anything like this. "

Does anyone know the pattern of this 5-part 13" Relish Tray. Fostoria has several very similar trays, but none with the silver embellishment on the edges or the exact pattern. Does anyone know what the metal is? It never tarnishes. I think the piece is from the 1940s. Thanks! …See More
