Fenton Holly Pattern Ruffled Carnival Glass Bowl in Lavender/Wisteria

This exquisite piece is a Fenton Art Glass bowl featuring the iconic 'Holly' pattern, executed in a stunning iridescent lavender or wisteria-toned carnival glass. The bowl exhibits a deeply crimped or ruffled edge, a hallmark of Fenton's Early American style. The interior is embossed with a high-relief pattern of holly leaves and berries surrounding a central multi-petaled flower or snowflake-like medallion. The glass possesses a strong iridescence, displaying a spectrum of metallic pinks, blues, and golds across the surface when it catches the light. The color appears to be a light amethyst or lavender base glass, often associated with Fenton's mid-20th-century production or later re-issues. The piece shows exceptional craftsmanship with crisp mold details and uniform ruffling. Condition appears excellent with no visible chips, cracks, or significant surface scratches, and the iridescence remains vibrant without signs of 'wear-off' or dullness. This pattern was originally introduced in the early 1900s, but this specific coloration and clarity suggest a later 20th-century production, possibly from the 1970s revival era. The bowl's size is medium, typically ranging between 7 and 9 inches in diameter.
