Fenton vases are some of the most beautiful glass collectible vases created in the United States. Because of their high quality and individuality, these vases can be extremely valuable and highly regarded by antique enthusiasts and collectors.
Fenton is the most well known glass figurines and collectables creator around. For those who are unfamiliar with Fenton products, Fenton has been in business since 1905, producing high quality, hand blown glass items that have become collectables, making many of vintage pieces extremely valuable and highly sought after.
Fenton was founded by two brothers, Frank and John Fenton, and they have become the number one glass producer in the United States. The original goal of Fenton was to create glass with different and unusual colors and features, some vases even feature 22 karat gold accents and designs that are hand painted. The artists and glass craftsmen at Fenton create individual, unique pieces so the value of each piece is high, which is why there are so many clubs and collectors groups dedicated to collecting these valuable pieces, many of which are antiques from the earlier production.
