The FOSTORIA Glass Company began operations in Fostoria, Ohio, on December 15, 1887.
Besides their regular line of blown, etched, and pressed patterns they
did custom work such as providing glass with government seals for
officials in Washington.
At one time, Fostoria was the largest maker of handmade glassware in the United States employing nearly 1000 people.
Business peaked in the 1950s when they made over 8 million pieces of glass.
