Marigold Iridescent Bark-Textured Carnival Glass Vase

This is a mid-century decorative vase crafted from pressed glass with a distinctive 'marigold' iridescent finish, a hallmark of carnival glass. The vessel features a classic tapered baluster form, slightly widening at the shoulder before cinching at a short neck and flaring into a smooth, rounded rim. The exterior surface is characterized by a dense, vertical 'bark' or tree-trunk texture that catches the light, enhancing the prismatic, metallic luster of the iridized coating. The color presents as a warm, vibrant honey-gold with subtle pink and green pearlescent flashes near the curves and rim. Based on its construction and style, it appears to be a mid-20th-century production, likely influenced by the 'Tree Bark' patterns produced by makers such as Jeanette Glass or Fenton during the Depression or post-war era. The condition appears excellent with no visible chips, cracks, or significant loss to the iridescent flashing. The base is likely flat and ground, though not visible in this orientation. The overall craftsmanship suggests a high-quality mass-produced collectible, maintaining its original sheen and surface integrity.
