• Our sea-blue glass coaster features the likeness of Frederick Douglass, an American social reformer, abolitionist, orator, writer, and statesman who lived from 1818 to 1895. The coaster's design is hand-screened onto the glass. Frederick Douglass' signature is displayed beneath his portrait, adding an official touch to the design. A subtle reminder of Douglass's significant contributions to American history and the fight against slavery, the coaster is the perfect accessory for anyone who wants to honor his legacy and enjoy their favorite beverage in style.
