When you dive into the world of collecting, you will quickly find that there are a TON of terms that you will hear. There could be anything from a service set to cheese dishes.
Here are some of the terms that you will run across when it comes to tableware:
Breakfast set—this set features both a sugar bowl and a creamer that match.
Frog—this is an element that has multiple holes in it that hold flowers upright. This will be in a vase or console bowl, and they range from small to large in size. They are also in any color from clear pieces to colorful Depression glass and even carnival glass.
Tumbler—this is an everyday drinking glass. They have been seen both footed and unfooted, and they also run the gambit in color from clear to every color under the rainbow.
Spooner—this item can be mistaken for a sugar bowl since they are similar. Spooners do not have lids and are taller than sugar bowls since they are designed to hold spoons.
