Rare Vintage Fenton Aqua Crest Diamond Lace Opalescent Blue Ruffle Pedestal Bowl
This rare vintage Fenton Aqua Crest Diamond Lace pedestal bowl features opalescent pressed glass with a softly glowing white body and a delicate aqua blue crest along the ruffled rim. The wide flared edge forms dramatic waves, while the intricate Diamond Lace pattern adds rich texture and visual depth. A clear pressed pedestal base with a faceted diamond motif completes the sculptural design.
Produced by Fenton Art Glass Company during the Mid-Century period, Aqua Crest pieces were admired for their luminous opalescent finish and vibrant colored rims. Measuring 13 inches wide, this bowl works beautifully as a fruit bowl, candy dish, or centerpiece, making it especially appealing to collectors of Mid-Century glassware, Fenton art glass, and vintage opalescent pressed glass.
Why It’s Special?
The Aqua Crest Diamond Lace pattern is one of Fenton’s more distinctive opalescent designs. Pieces with the aqua blue crest and detailed lace-like pressed texture were produced for a relatively limited period, making larger pedestal bowls in this pattern less commonly found today and highly sought after by Fenton collectors.
