<p>[QUOTE=&quot;42Skeezix, post: 33042, member: 40&quot;]Fenton. You may already know this.</p><p>The marigold Carnival glass stretch vase in the second picture is a rare find. It is by Millersburg in their Swirl Hobnail pattern. It is made from the swirl hobnail rose bowl mold and is considered a whimsy, or not regular production.This vase is vastly harder to find than the typical Fenton April Showers or Northwood Tree Bark stretch vases, which look very similar. It takes a trained eye to spot the differences. Mine is trained. The top edge is the most telling.</p><p><br /></p><p>The vase on the left is the Millersburg Swirl Hobnail vase in green, the center displays Northwood&#039;s Tree Bark in amythest , and the right is Fenton&#039;s April showers in blue. Note the difference in the tops in particular, also the many pointed star on the Millersburg base.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v712/Skezeks/s1.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Here is a closer shot of the tops...</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v712/Skezeks/s2.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>...and the bases</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v712/Skezeks/s3-1.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Congrats on a rare find.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
