Fenton Curious Cat in Lustred Blossoms on Marigold Carnival Glass
In October 1907, Fenton Art Glass Company entered the marketplace with an exciting new line of glassware called ''iridescent ware'' which featured vivid, changing metallic hues on highly-patterned pressed glassware. Stories told about how this glassware was used as midway game prizes and the phrase ''Carnival glass'' was coined. When Fenton Glass resumed production of their iridescent glass in 1970, they decided to call it "Carnival glass'' and have done so ever since. A special spray of metallic salts creates various effects on different base glass colors. This Fenton Carnival Glass 3-1/2'' Curious Cat figurine in Lustred Blossoms on Marigold Carnival was designed by Kim Barley. Click here to purchase and see larger photos.
