Pink Marigold Carnival Glass Bowl and Plate Set

This is a decorative set consisting of a handled glass bowl resting atop a stack of matching plates, fashioned in a distinct pink-orange 'Marigold' carnival glass finish. The bowl features a deep, pressed-glass diamond or 'sunburst' pattern on the exterior, which creates a multifaceted prismatic effect, while the interior remains smooth. It is characterized by its wide, scalloped rim and two integral flat handles. The plates beneath exhibit a highly detailed stippled background with a raised floral and scroll border, typical of early 20th-century decorative pressed glass styles. The glass possesses a metallic, iridescent sheen that shifts color under light, a hallmark of the Carnival glass manufacturing process which became popular in the early 1900s. The set appears to be in good vintage condition with no visible cracks or heavy chipping, though minor surface scratches and 'straw marks' from the original molding process are common for this type of glassware. The quality of the molding suggests it may be from a prolific American manufacturer such as Fenton, Northwood, or Imperial Glass, dating likely between 1910 and 1930. The iridescence is well-preserved, showing vibrant copper and rose tones.
