Up for your consideration is this beautifulFENTON ART GLASS MADE FOR L.G. WRIGHT
IT HAS SCALLOPED SAWTOOTH EDGE. IT IS EMBOSSED WITH HOLLY BERRIES AND AND BOWS ON OUTSIDE,,AND VINES,LEAVES AND BERIES ON INSIDE...SEE PICS.
IT GLOWS GREEN WHEN PRESENTED IN A DARK ROOM WITH A BLACKLIGHT, WHICH INDIACATES URANIUM IN THE GLASS,,THIS ALSO INDICATES ITS AGE..SEE PICS
IT MEASURES 9.5" ACROSSX 3.75" TALL..VERY HEAVY.
I COULD FIND NO FLAWS ANYWHERE,,JUST NEEDS WASHED.
IT IS MARKED WITH AN UNDERLINED LETTER "W" WITH A CIRLCE AROUND IT ,
HERE BELOW IS SOME INFO FOUND ON EBAY:
SI WRIGHT STARTED HIS BUSINESS IN IN 1937 BUYING HIS GLASS FROM FENTON,CAMBRIDGE AND OTHERS. HE ALSO BOUGHT MOLDS FROM DUGAN,NORTHWOOD. HE NEGOTIATED WITH GLASS MANUFACTURES TO GET THE BEST POSSIBLE PRICE FOR HIS GLASS PRODUCTION.
SOME L.G.WRIGHT REPRODUCTION NORTHWOOD GLASS EVEN CARRIED THE NORTHWOOD "N" IN A CIRCLE TRADEMARK,,,THIS WAS LATER CHANGED BY ADDING AN EXTRA STROKE TO CONVERT THE N TO A WOBBLY "W".
I THINK IF YOU LOOK CLOSELY AT THE BOTTOM YOU WILL SEE THIS MARK
.
Although it owned the molds, the Wright company never mixed glass or pressed any glass. Molds were jobbed out for the actual working to a variety of glass factories including Fenton, Mosser, Westmoreland, Gibson, Summit, Viking and others.
