VTG 6.75" Fenton Carnival Glass Blackberry Spray Hat Vase

This piece represents Fenton Art Glass Company's carnival glass production from the early 20th century. Carnival glass was created as an affordable alternative to expensive Tiffany iridescent glass, and was mass-produced between 1907 and the 1930s. The distinctive iridescent finish was achieved by spraying metallic salts on the hot glass surface, creating the characteristic rainbow sheen. The Holly pattern, featuring embossed holly leaves and berries, was one of Fenton's popular motifs during this period. Carnival glass appeals to collectors worldwide for its beautiful iridescence, nostalgic charm, and historical significance as Depression-era glassware. The marigold color is the most common but remains highly sought after for its warm, golden-orange glow. Collectors of American glassware, vintage home décor enthusiasts, and carnival glass specialists particularly value Fenton pieces for their quality craftsmanship and the company's prominent role in American glass history. The ruffled hat or bon bon dish shape adds decorative versatility, making it popular among both collectors and those seeking authentic vintage décor.
