Fenton Cranberry Opalescent Hobnail Vase With A Ruffled Rim

This has a small chip in one of the ruffles. The hobnail pattern, characterized by its raised bumps, was a popular design element in Fenton's glassware. Cranberry glass, with its distinctive red hue achieved by adding gold chloride to the glass batch, was another signature color for Fenton. The combination of cranberry glass, opalescence, and hobnail pattern, along with a ruffled rim, is a classic Fenton design. These vases were often used for displaying roses or other small floral arrangements and are highly sought after by collectors today.
