About Fenton Art Glass

Founder Frank L. Fenton put his company on the map in 1907 by experimenting with different color combinations until he came up with 'Iridill,' better known as 'Carnival Glass.' Fenton played a major role in the art glass movement of the early 1900s, and later produced opaque 'milk glass' in the 1950's and 60's. Fenton also introduced limited edition collector plates which became highly popular among Carnival and art glass enthusiasts.

About Art Glass

Starting in the mid 1800s, glass blowers began to experiment with different colors, patterns, and textures, resulting in signature styles from different craftsmen and regions in all shapes, sizes, and forms. Some of the patterns created by early innovators like Rene Lalique and Louis Comfort Tiffany are still being used today.
