This 8 1/2 inch diameter bowl is beautiful. If anyone has any additional information about it, I would greatly appreciate it. I tried to look it up in some Carnival Glass books. I identified the pattern as Fentonia, but the books did not mention a bowl this large in this pattern.
What you have is "Fentonia Fruits" ... much more rare than "Fentonia".
The difference is the clusters of cherries in "Fentonia Fruits". These clusters are replaced with an array of hobnails (arranged in a diamond pattern) in "Fentonia".
I believe your bowl is the large berry bowl.
Twentiethe,
Thank you so much for the information! I see the clusters of cherries. I am so glad that I found this website.
You're very welcome.
Does anyone know when this pattern was produced?
I think it dates from around 1915-1925:
