This is a stunning vintage amber glass compote (candy dish) by Fenton Art Glass. It features the classic "Colonial" pattern (often referred to as "Thumbprint" or "Early American"), characterized by large, light-reflecting oval indentations around the bowl. The piece is finished with Fenton's signature deeply ruffled (crimped) rim and sits on a sturdy, faceted hexagonal stem. The rich honey-gold color makes it a perfect piece for autumn decor or a warm vintage accent in any room.

History:
Produced by Fenton Art Glass in the 1960s and 1970s. While similar to the "Kings Crown" pattern by Indiana Glass, the Fenton version is distinguished by its specific crimping style and the faceted hexagonal stem shape. This pattern was a staple of Mid-Century American glass production, designed to mimic the "thumbprint" cut glass of the 1800s.
