D. Fredrick is a known decorator for the Fenton Art Glass Company, active during the late 20th century and into the early 2000s. Like many Fenton artists, Fredrick specialized in hand-painting floral motifs, seasonal themes, and figural accents on a variety of Fenton forms including vases, baskets, bells, and animal figurines. Her work is often signed “D. Fredrick” on the base and accompanied by the Fenton oval logo, indicating authenticity and studio origin.

Fredrick’s style is characterized by soft brushwork and delicate color palettes, frequently featuring forget-me-nots, tulips, violets, and roses. While not as widely documented as some senior Fenton artists, her pieces are appreciated by collectors for their charm and consistency, especially on opalescent and satin glass forms. See less
