OMG what a beautiful bowl... was my words when I spotted this!
As you all know... I'm not a collector of Art Glass but when I found this bowl my jaw dropped in awe. I love butterflies, flowers and the color purple. She was all mine!
Then I had to come home and learn a little about this bowl
it's a Fenton re-issue of the Dugan Classis Butterfly and Tulip
if you want details here is a link I found

the QVC price is the retail price at time of sale in 2005
TallCakes that retail price is too high for this girl when it comes to glass. Now pottery is a whole other story :)
Such a PRETTY Color !!!!
Love the colors.
