Fenton Art Glass

Crested items are some of the most popular Fenton pieces. Crests, also known as petticoat glass, is a layer of colored (or clear in the case of silvercrest!) glass that goes around the rim of an item - such as a vase or bowl.

This great figurine is hand-painted and features genuine swarovski crystals! Fenton works with many companies such as Lenox, Swarovski, Rosso, and others to create products together.

SOLD!

This piece is called ivory crest because the body is a pale yellowish ivory color. The crest itself is actually clear (silver crest)

This color began production in 1940, but ceased production by late 1941 - early 1942 because of wartime shortages.

This is an older piece of vaseline glass in a pattern known as "Blackberry Spray." This pattern is often seen in carnival glass, but rarely in solid vaseline. Vaseline glass will glow under black light because of it's uranium content.

This color variety is named "peach crest" even though the crest color is actually silver (clear glass)

It carries this name because of the vibrant pink interior these pieces feature. This is one of my favorite crests:)

Peach Crest-->

This is another example of peach crest. Note that the color is much softer and more delicate than the example above. This is a perfect example of the color variety that can result from hand made glass!

Silver crest is one of the longest lived colors ever to present in the Fenton line. It traditionally consists of a white milk glass base and a ribbon edge of clear crystal. This is a very stunning glass. Silver crest can appear on multiple patterns and can appear in conjunction with other color treatments. Often silver crest pieces are hand painted.

This pattern is called snow crest because the crest is milk glass. Essentially, this piece is an exact reverse of gold crest. Instead of the crest being gold, this piece's body is gold!

The pattern is called "Autumn Leaves on Opal Satin" and was made for just one year - 1985. This pattern is considered scarce.
