The substantial square serving platform is surrounded by an ornate scalloped border and elevated on a beautifully faceted pedestal base. At the center is the distinctive recessed rum well, a wonderful detail found on select vintage pedestal cake stands.

The deeply molded geometric pattern catches and reflects light beautifully, giving the piece an almost architectural quality. Elegant enough for formal entertaining yet graphic enough for a contemporary interior, this versatile piece is equally beautiful displaying cakes, pastries, fruit or simply used as a decorative centerpiece.

The Fostoria American pattern became one of the company’s most recognizable designs and remains highly collectible today. The square pedestal form is particularly dramatic and makes a wonderful addition to a collection of American pressed and elegant glass.
