Fenton Glass Vaseline Yellow Ruffled Edge Bowl

This item is a decorative pressed glass bowl, likely manufactured by Fenton Art Glass. It is crafted in a distinctive translucent yellow-green 'Vaseline' or 'Canary' glass, a color traditionally achieved by adding a small amount of uranium dioxide to the glass melt. The bowl features a complex 'Hobnail' or 'Thousand Eye' pattern consisting of concentric rows of raised circular bosses that radiate from a starburst-patterned center. The most striking physical characteristic is the deeply crimped or ruffled edge, often referred to as a 'crested' or 'ribbon' edge, which gives the piece a wavy, organic silhouette. Construction is of heavy, molded glass with a smooth circular base. The color suggests it would glow bright green under an ultraviolet (UV) light. Given the style and material, this piece likely dates from the mid-20th century (circa 1940s-1960s). It shows excellent craftsmanship with uniform ruffles and sharp molded details. The condition appears to be excellent with no visible chips, cracks, or significant surface scratches, and the glass retains a high degree of clarity and luster. There is no visible maker's mark in the image, which is common for older Fenton pieces that originally bore foil stickers.
