Fenton? Consolidated? Other? ... You be the judge

[mjm579]

Ok, so I picked this beauty up today bc I thought it looked a lot like Fenton art glass. Much to my dismay, no Fenton pattern like this one.

A quick google search lead me to the Consolidated Glass Company, rose bowl.

I almost fell off my chair when I saw these prices for some of these pieces.

I can't find one with this pattern (flowers, birds).

Any ideas? Age? Pattern? Value?

How I wish I had enough money to quit my day job!!! I LOVE thrift store shopping!!

If it's fenton, it should be marked as such

Love it. I don't know anything about it but wish you luck with it.

Before 1973 many Fenton pieces were marked with paper labels which can easily be washed off.

I've seen these rose bowls listed as Fenton, Consolidated, Mt. Washington, Victorian, English, Bavarian, etc.
I think it's probably an American made piece but there is really no way to prove it that I know of, so it could be English. Probably early-mid 1900's, hand decorated, Pink Satin glass Rose bowl. It is called a rose bowl because that is what it was used for, rose petals. In the Victorian era, rose bowls were filled with rose petals to add fragrance to a room.
It's a nice piece.

I think I need to go to my local thrift stores with you. You are a wealth of information. Thanks for helping me out so many times.
