Documented on Page 64 of "Fenton Rarities," this 9.5-inch historical treasure represents a highly restricted, pre-logo special order featuring an exquisite hand-applied clear crystal "petticoat" ruffled edge.

While the traditional Silver Crest line utilized white milk glass, this rare art glass variant was meticulously handcrafted using a specialized, gold-infused Ruby Amberina formula. The resulting fiery aesthetic boasts a breathtaking ombre gradient that seamlessly shifts from deep, saturated ruby red down to a warm, glowing golden-amber base.

For collectors of reactive glass, the early mid-century cadmium chemistry causes the thick collar base of this piece to illuminate with a dense, cloudy, mustard-yellow glow under a 365nm UV blacklight—serving as a brilliant, authentic historical fingerprint.

Boasting a glossy, high-polish finish, the low-profile bowl measures 2.3 inches tall.

Though rooted in the craftsmanship of the Victorian Revival era, its vibrant colorway and highly fluid, organic ruffles make it an exceptional maximalist statement piece that seamlessly blends into a Mid-Century Modern, Hollywood Regency, or eclectic interior design space. See less
