Description

Vintage Pristine Fenton Hobnail Pedestal Compote Candy Dish Bowl Ruffled Rim

The Hobnail pattern is a classic that many glass makers produced. This lovely pedestal candy dish is by the glassmakers at Fenton. This dish has it all! Two simple rings separate the pedestal from the curved base. The Hobnail pattern begins on the pedestal, which is separated from the bowl by another ring. The bowl again features the Hobnails right up to the beginning of the wildly ruffled rim. Whether loaded with candy or not, this dish is loaded with character!

This dish is in pristine condition with no chips, cracks or flea bites. approximately 5-5/8" tall and measures approximately 6" in diameter across the top. Prior to 1973 Fenton marked its pieces with various stick-on paper labels which usually wore away with cleaning and handling. This piece still has one of those labels affixed to the inside of the bowl. Between 1972 and 1973, Fenton began putting their mark in Hobnail and other ware. By 1975, almost all ware had the logo. The logo on the bottom of the base is the word "Fenton" enclosed in an oval. There is no number, which dates this piece prior to 1980 when a small "8" was added below the name.

After more than 100 years in business, Fenton closed its doors in 2011. You'll find pieces at auctions and estate sales, but the older Fenton pieces in pristine condition are already getting hard to find in some areas. This is a truly lovely piece that would thrill a collector.
