Antique Fostoria Bulls Eye EAPG Footed Dresser Jar from 1900s-20s – Famous Look-Alike – Good/Fair

Maganese Glass Fostoria EAPG Dresser Jar glows under 365 nm blacklight. Discover the charm of the past with this Fostoria 520 bulls eye footed dresser jar, a beautiful piece from the 1900s-1920s era Crafted by Fostoria, this jar was also known as the famous look-alike and was described in their catalog as a “cut glass effect (with a) milled plate cover.”

Sometimes called tobacco jars, this striking dresser jar measures 3 1/2 inches in height and width and showcases a gorgeous zipper glass pattern with a row of bulls eye on each corner. While each of the feet has chips and the gold tone on the jar lid has mostly worn off, these imperfections add to its antique patina. Holding it, you can imagine someone picking it up and setting it down an the edge of a foot instead of perfectly level. It was well-loved. The lid itself is free from dents and original to the jar.

Add a sense of history to any room with this finely early American press glassed dresser jar.

Condition: Good/Fair. Each foot is chipped, but there are no chips or cracks on the rest of the piece.

Care: Hand wash as needed in cold water. Line the bottom of the sink with a dish towel to cushion the glass and prevent chipping during washing. Otherwise, dust it with a soft dry cloth. The lid may polish up, but I did not polish it as it may damage the patina.
