Topic: Turquoise Cased Iridescent Petal Vase - ID = Fenton "Jacqueline"

[TxSilver]

This pretty vase was irresistible to me. It is 4.5" tall. The casing glass is somewhere between aqua and turquoise over opal glass. The vase is iridescent inside and out. There is a pontil scar on bottom -- an oval with additional glass off around it. The oval looks a bit like the Fenton oval, but there is no writing. I've taken a picture of the base using flash. The concentric ridges are in the clear glass and not in the opal. Does anyone have any ideas who did this vase? I am reaching a dead end with it.

Thanks!

I thought the bottom part (kinda) looks like a Pineapple design ?? in a sense.  I have no idea, but very pretty. 

...................... Not sure if it could be Steuben.........................  :huh:

Thanks, Rose. I am thinking North American for the vase. Maybe some of the Ohio-type glass people will check in the group soon.

I ran across a purple luster vase online made by Fenton. The pattern was different, but it reminded me a lot of my vase. The purple vase was not marked, but had a label.

Could my vase be Fenton?

Anita I don't do Fenton unless its 20's or 30's however if Dr. Measell sees this he will have an answer. It certainly looks as it may well be 50's to 60's (paper label) Fenton. If I have your permission to "borrow" your pics I can submit it to another board that has Fenton knowledgable members. Ken

Hi, Ken. You definitely have my permission. Do you need me to email you copies? Thanks!

I found a red vase in a 1961 Fenton catalog. The vase is a different shape, but has the same petal pattern. http://www.fentonfan.com/Catalogs/Cat61/Page12.htm. I think you are right about the era, Ken.

I got them Anita & posted to another board...will let you know of replies. Ken

I found it. It is a Fenton Jacqueline overlay vase.  :sun: I was able to find one like mine on eBay that was described as a QVC vase. So maybe the oval on bottom is a Fenton oval, but doesn't have writing?? Does anyone know if these were made at an earlier time and the reproduced for QVC? Or if some of the QVC vases did not have the Fenton oval?

Anita my apologies, yes it appears to be Jacqueline from the board I posted to & take a loop & see if there isn't a faded logo on the bottom. DW wanted the kitchen redone (countertops, sink, etc.) & of all things the phone rang at 8:30am & the contractor said he could work from 10 to 5 (on Sunday which I could not believe) if I helped him out so he came & the day was shot. Sorry about the delay. If Dr. Measell stops in he can tell you the history around it as some QVC item were produced using old molds clear back to the early 1900's...I actually have an original piece whose mold was used to produce a QVC C54175, Fenton C7603WV item & he supplied me with the info on the old mold that he personally aquired years before & maybe yours is along this line.
