Fenton USA Presents. . . Classic Ruby
Red remains a statement color in home decor, and our rich Ruby
glass is suitable
for any occasion! During the first half of the twentieth century,
glassmakers strived to make a uniform ruby color suitable for
railroad signals, lantern globes and auto signal lights. Today,
Fenton's ruby glass is made with selenium and cadmium. This glass
batch is sensitive to heat and interesting color variations often
occur. Collectors take great delight in the red-orange effect
called "amberina."
Our Dolphin Comport and Ribbed Bowl
show how the intense glow of Fenton's furnaces is captured forever
in the shimmering iridescence and luster inherent in the magic of
Ruby Amberina Stretch glass. First produced in the 1920s, the
glamorous art deco style continues to captivate collectors. After
the glass is sprayed with a solution of metallic salts to create
the iridescent finish, the items are reheated so that they may be
reshaped. As a skilled glassworker (called a finisher) reshapes
the piece, the iridescent surface stretches, creating a myriad of
striations and a delightful texture.
For figurine collectors, Fenton fans
are aflutter over our beautiful butterfly. Designed by Kim Barley,
it is decorated with rich, sheer metallic gold paint and a
sprinkle of glitter. Our adorable Fenton Foal in vibrant Ruby
continues to be popular and is also available
decorated. Click on each image for details
