Art Deco Paneled Amber Iridescent Carnival Glass Footed Tumbler

This is an elegant Art Deco style footed tumbler or parfait glass, characterized by its warm amber-gold hue and subtle iridescent 'carnival' finish. The piece features a tall, flared body with eight distinct vertical panels that create a faceted light-catching effect. The vessel tapers sharply toward a short, ribbed pedestal neck, which is supported by a flat, circular foot. Constructed from blown or pressed soda-lime glass, it exhibits a shimmering luster across its surface, indicative of metallic salts being applied during the cooling process. This specific style of paneling and iridescence was highly popular during the early to mid-20th century, particularly between 1920 and 1940. The piece shows moderate signs of age including minor surface abrasions and some fading of the iridescent coating near the rim, which is common for utilitarian glassware of this era. There are no visible chips or cracks. The craftsmanship suggests a mass-market manufacturer from the Depression era, such as Federal Glass, Fenton, or Jeannette, though no specific maker's mark is visible in the photograph. The glass quality is clear with a smooth finish, representing a fine example of American Depression-era decorative stemware.
