Fenton Carnival Glass Patterns
Birds and Cherries (circa 1911) (Golden, Green, Royal Blue, Violet, Topaz)- The beautiful Birds and Cherries pattern is most commonly found on bonbons and small compotes. The 9" bowl is quite hard to find and commands a moderately high price in any color other than marigold. The most elusive piece in this pattern is the 10" plate which is rarely found in any of the colors listed.

Butterfly and Fern #910 (circa 1918) (Golden, Green, Royal Blue, Violet)- Fenton made this stunning carnival glass pattern around the turn of the 19th century. This beautiful pitcher is adorned with a intricate pattern of butterflies and fern leaves. Butterfly and Fern is found only as a water set. The most commonly found color is Golden (Marigold).

Dragon's Tongue (circa 1914) (Golden, Golden Iridesence over Milk Glass, Moonstone, Peach Opalescent)- Dragon's Tongue is an infrequently found pattern from the early 1900s. The only two pieces found in this pattern are a footed bowl and a lamp shade. The footed bowl has only been found in Golden (marigold) and is a very scarce item.

Fenton made this stunning carnival glass pattern shortly after the turn of the 19th century. Larger pieces depict a full orange tree while smaller pieces show orange tree blossoms.

The two main production colors were Golden (Marigold) and Royal Blue. Most of the 26 pieces made can be found in these colors. There were only 16 pieces made in green. Red pieces were limited to only 6 different items. The other colors we have listed were only used to make a piece or two of this beautiful pattern.

Some early glass non-carnival colors have been found such as Persian Blue, Custard, and Chocolate.
