History:
The glass shown is a Fostoria American low water goblet, also referred to as a footed tumbler. The "American" pattern, known for its geometric cube design, was one of Fostoria Glass Company's most popular creations and was produced from 1915 until the company closed in the 1980s. The pattern is still a sought-after collectible today.

There are similar-looking patterns by other companies, such as Jeannette Glass Company's "Cubist" and Indiana Glass Company's "Whitehall". A key way to distinguish authentic Fostoria American pieces is by checking for three mold lines and a smooth, slick feel, while look-alikes may have two mold lines and less polished surfaces. The feet of Fostoria American pieces are also described as "turned" rather than a straight post
