    UPDATE: Fenton Candle Plate (for a good laugh, please continue reading); Again, as is usual, mystery solved by TallCakes; thank you, sir!

    Orig.Post: Ok, so the sticker indicates this would be 1985-1996. This is 2" tall, and a little over 6" across. I looked through every catalog from 1985-96 and as is par for the course for me, I couldn't find the darn thing. I have no clue what to call this -- I saw one on Ebay that called itself "Opalescent Iridescent Vaseline Mini Ruffled Cake Plate" -- so would that be close? This is a family piece, however, I'm clueless. Oh, and at the risk of sounding stupid, why a miniature cake plate? Who is going to make a miniature cake?

      wow, very neat! I had no idea Vaseline glass was made in the late 20th century...hmm
      Miniature cake=cupcake lol
      I'm sure solving this one will be a piece of cake for TallCake...i mean, it's his favorite things- glass and cakes! ...Great, now I want some cake.....
    2. MyFavoriteTreasures MyFavoriteTreasures, 8 years ago

      Oh this is such a lovely little thing, MFT! I hope TallCakes can help you with it! :)
    4. MyFavoriteTreasures MyFavoriteTreasures, 8 years ago
      Thanks Katherine! Yep, like Anna said, this would be an "all-things-TallCakes" -- Fenton, glass, glowing glass, cake plate, etc. LOL
    5. MyFavoriteTreasures MyFavoriteTreasures, 8 years ago
      Antiquerose, thank you very much!

      also check the Fenton QVC database; this is called a candleplate. I think this the same:
      http://www.fentonfan.com/cgi-bin/webdata_QVC.pl?fid=1290100910.84594&query=ID%3D%26Item%2520Name%3D%26Date%2528s%2529%2520Shown%3D%26Color%2520%252F%2520Treatment%3Dtopaz%2520opalescent%26Mould%2520Type%3D%26QVC%2520Item%2520%2523%3D%26Fenton%2520Catalog%2520%2523%3D%26Signature%3D%26Description%3D%26pagenum%3D3%26cgifunction%3DSearch&cgifunction=form

      Oh wow! Boy do I feel dumb, LOL. TallCakes, you gotta be cracking up at me now. OK, so it's a candleplate. Will get this corrected asap. Thanks, again, TallCakes for all you do.
    8. TallCakes TallCakes, 8 years ago
      hey, it works as a small cake plate for me : ) a mini-cake or large cupcake would look nice on this. Fenton made many special pieces for QVC that will not be found in their regular catalogs...
    9. MyFavoriteTreasures MyFavoriteTreasures, 8 years ago
      I didn't realize QVC had different pieces; actually, I know ZERO about Fenton - I just happened to have some family pieces given to me; I guess I'll have to up my game!! And Yes, a giant chocolate fudge or devil's food cupcake would be great on this! Yum, now I'm hungry!
    10. katherinescollections katherinescollections, 8 years ago
      Sir TallCakes FTW!!! A candleplate on QVC, see, only he would know that!!!

      And I totally agree, a cupcake on there would be the sweetest thing ever! :)
    11. MyFavoriteTreasures MyFavoriteTreasures, 8 years ago
      LOL, yes, here I was trying to figure out who and/or why in the world anyone would want a miniature cake plate. If I'm gonna bake a cake, I want a BIG one LOL; Go figure! I'm still laughing at myself! TallCakes, I know you must get a kick out of watching us amateurs trying to sort all this out LOL.
    12. TallCakes TallCakes, 8 years ago
      I made a some mini-carrot cakes for gifts a few weeks ago that would fit perfectly on this. And.. this is the 'Hobstar and Feather' pattern originally by Indiana Glass c1908; AKA: Fern Burst.
    13. MyFavoriteTreasures MyFavoriteTreasures, 8 years ago
      TallCakes, see, there you go - all you need are some Fenton Candleplates to hold those mini-gift-cakes you make! And thank you for the pattern ID, and thank you, for all you do!
    14. MyFavoriteTreasures MyFavoriteTreasures, 8 years ago

      I held off on posting here because doing so would have overwritten TallCakes' post with the vaseline collection link; if any of you haven't checked it out, you should - it's fabulous! Thanks again, TallCakes for sharing the link! I wish I could have 1 of each LOL !! Thanks for the love freiheit, always appreciated, MFT
