About this product

Product Information

Based on the known lamp catalogs and price lists, during the Opal Years, the Fostoria Glass Company made approximately 920 different Opal Lamps. Each lamp came with two and many times three decorations expanding the selection to more than 2,000 Opal Lamps. To this add the Opal Hand and Stand Lamps, the Portables, the Blue, and the Persian Ware Lamps bringing the total to over 2,200 Lamps to select from during the 24 years of production. Utilizing all currently known Fostoria catalogs from 1897 to 1922, this book is the most complete resources for identification of these lamps and decorations. Divided into 8 sections covering imitation vase lamps, with or without metal base, medium grade lamps with removable brass oil pots, banquet and reading lamps, gas and electric portables, hand and stand lamps, center draft lamps, and miscellaneous including Persian Ware and Blue glass lamps. Extravagantly illustrated with 620 photographs and catalog reprints, most in full color. Prefaced with a history of Fostoria from the earliest Fostoria, Ohio, years until the move to Moundsville, West Virginia where the majority of these lamps were made, the book also includes three appendices, a bibliography, and detailed indexes. A must for collectors of Fostoria glass, oil lamps, opal (milk glass), or general antiques.
