Lotus and Grape, Fenton
This is another of Fenton's paneled designs. The name is very appropriate as there are lotus blossoms and bunches of grapes repeated in a design around the pattern. | ||
Plates in any color are highly prized. | The above blue bonbon was considered by the auctioneer to be the best he had seen. It brought $1,450 in 2018. | |
This marigold rosebowl whimsey is very rare. One brought $135 in 2008
and another $65 in 2010. One sold for $100 in 2020.
Bonbons or card trays Plates, 9 inch Rosebowl footed whimsey Bowl, no grape pattern, enameled |
This is an ice cream-shaped bowl in the rare Persian blue.
Small bowls or sauces, 5-6 inches, footed Bowls, 7-8 inch, footed or collar Bowls, about 9 inches Nut bowl, 6-inch |
In 2017, this purple plate sold at the Karen Engel auction for $10,500. | Also in 2017, this blue ruffled bowl with the grape portion of the design missing sold for $925. | In 2005, Mike Mings sent me this photo of a 7-inch Lotus and Grape bowl he owns. It's marigold with a slight green tint to the base glass. What makes it unusual is the jack-in-the pulpit-shape..
Updated 12/6/2022 Also in 2005, I received these photos from Gaynor and Frank in Australia showing their 7-inch ruffled bowl in celeste blue. I'd not heard of this color before but since then several have sold.
