History

This elegant flared vase was likely produced by Fostoria Glass Company as part of their popular Coin pattern line, dating from the mid-20th century. The distinctive olive-green color, known as 'Avocado' or 'Lime Green,' was particularly fashionable during the 1960s and 1970s when bright, bold colors dominated home décor. Fostoria glass pieces are highly sought after by collectors of American pressed glass and mid-century decorative arts. This particular style of vase appeals to collectors for its elegant silhouette, vibrant color, and association with a renowned American glassmaker. Mid-century modern enthusiasts and vintage glass collectors value such pieces for their decorative appeal and representation of mid-century aesthetic sensibilities.
