Markings: Base appears unmarked in the photos; unmarked examples are generally earlier pieces made before Fenton’s later logo-era marking practices.

Collector’s Notes

White hobnail milk glass remains one of the most recognizable vintage glass patterns, and Fenton’s trumpet vases are especially easy to style because they work in both formal and casual spaces. This one has lovely form and shelf presence, with the condition reflected in the grade and pricing.

A classic little milk glass piece with plenty of vintage charm left to give.
