this is a set of fenton wisteria and violet opalescent. the pieces can range in color from a dark cobalt blue color to a soft purple. this ranks as one of the hardest colors to find in the fenton hobnail pattern. the cruet on the right is very rare! A mini vase similar to the one in the middle of the pic directly behind the bonbon sold recently on ebay for over $300. hope you all enjoy! thanks
