About Fenton Carnival Glass:
Fenton Art Glass began producing carnival glass in 1907, becoming one of the most renowned American glassmakers. The Holly pattern was among their earliest and most popular pressed designs, often produced in marigold—the most iconic carnival color. These iridescent pieces were originally inexpensive "giveaways," but today they are prized for their craftsmanship and vintage charm.
