Vintage Marigold Carnival Glass Swung Bud Vase
Antique/Vintage Glassware

Vintage Marigold Carnival Glass Swung Bud Vase

This is a vintage pressed glass bud vase, specifically a 'swung' style vase characterized by its elongated neck and ruffled, six-pointed star or lily-shaped rim. The piece is constructed from clear glass with a light marigold or amberina-style iridescent finish, typical of carnival glass from the early-to-mid 20th century. The body features a vertical ribbed or fluted pattern that extends from the circular, multi-faceted base up toward the rim. The base appears to be a pressed 'starburst' or 'sawtooth' design which provides stability for the tall, slender profile. The iridescence is concentrated more heavily toward the top, showing subtle flashes of gold and yellow. In terms of condition, the glass appears clear with no visible cracks or heavy chips in the provided image, though minor flea bites on the sharp edges of the base facets and rim are common for glassware of this age. The swung technique means that each of these vases is slightly unique in height and rim formation as the glass was pulled or swung while hot. Based on the ribbing pattern and base design, this reflects the Early American Pattern Glass (EAPG) influence, likely produced by an American manufacturer such as Fenton, Northwood, or Imperial Glass, dating approximately from the 1940s to the 1960s.
