Fenton Carnival?
« on: September 07, 2010, 10:41:39 PM »
This one strikes me as Fenton Carnival but I mostly familar with their patterned pressed carnival.

It's about 8 inches across, the foot is just a hair over 3 inches across, and it's ...uh...not quite round or centered  :).  Beautiful color though.

James?  :hi:

Well, I've never seen a plain, un-patterned bowl like this one before. I agree with you that it looks like a Fenton piece, however the number of main crimps / panels is odd - there are 9 (I think Fenton usually has eight). Maybe James Measell, the Fenton expert, will comment.
