<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dgbjwc, post: 4465295, member: 308&quot;]I&#039;ve got about at least a dozen of these puppies made by Fenton and I believe they are all marked as such (they&#039;re in a cabinet and I&#039;d need to do some gymnastics to get them all out to check). All mine are straight sided - the flared examples are much harder to find. Most of the Verlys molds that Fenton used were American Verlys. Many of these molds are shown in Carole and Wayne McPeek&#039;s Verlys of America book but a fish pattern is not among them. The McPeek&#039;s book may not be inclusive. I&#039;ve either got examples of most of the Fenton versions of the American Verlys molds in my collection or have sold them. I believe all were signed with the Fenton oval mark. I&#039;m not sure if Fenton also used Verlys of France molds although the Verlys of France and the American Verlys did at least share some designs/molds (Gems and the Duck Tray for example are shown in both the French and American catalogs. The only Poissons piece in the American Verlys catalog is a double handled bowl that does not show in Fenton&#039;s lines. I can post a picture of that bowl if anyone would find it helpful). My suspicion is that Fenton made all new molds for their Atlantis pattern. The fairy lamp would be the most obvious example of a form not known in either French or American Veryls. </p><p><br /></p><p>The condensed version is: I checked my Verlys books and couldn&#039;t find a fish vase represented in either the American or the French books. The closest pattern is the Les Poisson line that Tallcakes but there is no vase shown. I do agree that the vase above is not Fenton.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
