Fenton Art Glass Peacock and Ferns Emerald Green Carnival Glass Vase

This striking 14-1/2'' Peacock and Ferns Vase is handcrafted in Emerald Green Carnival glass. It is one of the largest carnival glass vases to be made by Fenton Art 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 resumed production of their iridescent glass in 1970, we decided to call it "Carnival glass'' and have done so ever since. The secret, both in 1907 and now, of Fenton Carnival glass is the special spray of metallic salts on the glass while it is very hot. They continue to make Carnival glass the ''old fashioned'' way, and we never cease to marvel at the rainbow of colors and the interesting hues.

Summer Bling Offering Just Arrived - New Buttercup Glass Items

This week we've been featuring the newest Fenton Art Glass from the Summer Bling offering. This offering had some great pieces which includes three new buttercup glass items. As you may already know, the production of Buttercup is coming to a halt. Once Fenton uses the last few pieces that they have in stock, no new items will be made. This is part of the reason the Buttercup items in the Summer Bling offering are in such small quantities:
