Marigold Carnival Glass Double-Handled Relish Dish

This item is a 2-handled relish or pickle dish crafted from pressed Marigold Carnival Glass, likely dating to the early-to-mid 20th century. The piece features a shallow, oblong bowl supported by a low, circular pedestal base. The primary body is decorated with wide, vertical optic ribbing or fluting that radiates from the base to the smooth rim, creating a rhythmic play of light. The marigold iridized finish displays a warm, pumpkin-orange glow that transitions into lighter, yellowish tones at the extremities of the handles. These 'open loop' handles are applied to each side, providing a clear glass contrast to the deeply hued bowl. The iridescence shows a moderate luster, typical of classic American carnival glass makers like Fenton or Northwood, though no maker's marks are immediately visible in the photograph. The glass quality appears high with uniform wall thickness and well-defined molding. Regarding condition, there is a visible 'hazy' or 'cloudy' band running horizontally across the midsection of the bowl, which may indicate surface lime deposits or professional wear from frequent use. The rim and base appear structurally sound without significant chips, though minor shelf wear is expected on the underside of the foot.
