Description

The listing, ANTIQUE FENTON CARNIVAL GLASS has ended.

Up for bid is a beautiful pink iridescent carnival glass basket made by Junior Thompson (1957-1977) for the Fenton Company. Each glass piece is handmade and attaching basket handles requires a great deal of skill. There's less than 30 seconds to attach and shape a handle before the glass cools down and is no longer workable. In the 1950's, company President Frank M Fenton and his brother Bill Fenton decided that each Fenton basket handler should have a distinctive mark so collectors could identify the artisan who created their basket. I've included a picture of the handlers mark and I've also included the famous Fenton signature on the underside of the basket. Also included is a closeup picture of the etched pattern on the glass. This basket has what is called a ruffled edge. Because of its iridescent coloring, it's considered carnival glass

Wow! So beautiful! Happy you got it posted. Planning on bidding later. Is it signed Fenton and does it have a Fenton label?
