Questions About Fenton Painted Glass
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 22, 2024What the most sought-after Fenton glass is may vary, as trends in collecting change over time. However, certain varieties typically remain in demand. Among them are epergnes, mosaic glass, swung vases and vaseline glass. Limited-edition pieces are also popular. Shop a diverse assortment of Fenton glass on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 1, 2024To identify Fenton glass, turn the piece over. Prior to 1970, Fenton marked its pieces with foil stickers bearing the designer's name. After 1970, Fenton began stamping its name directly onto pieces. During the 1980s, Fenton began placing a number along with the logo to indicate the decade. Eight denotes the 1980s, while nine signifies a production date during the 1990s. Pieces crafted from 2000 onward will have a zero. If you need assistance identifying your glassware, consult a certified appraiser or experienced dealer. On 1stDibs, find a collection of Fenton glassware.
- 1stDibs ExpertMarch 15, 2024To tell if Fenton glass is real, examine its details carefully. Pieces made during the 1960s and earlier will have a ring of fire effect when viewed in natural lighting. To check for this, hold your glassware in the sunlight and look for a halo of shimmering green, red and blue colors, which occur due to the presence of iridized salts in the glass. For newer pieces, look for the raised maker's mark in the glass. It will usually appear as the word Fenton or the letter F situated inside an oval. If you need assistance authenticating your piece, have a certified appraiser or experienced dealer evaluate it. On 1stDibs, explore a selection of Fenton glass.
- 1stDibs ExpertOctober 30, 2024Yes, some Fenton glass is still worth something. Although trends in collecting do come and go, many people still seek out examples of the maker's mosaic, opaline and cobalt glassware. There may also be a market for other pieces, such as epergnes, mid-century cat figurines, swung vases, limited edition glassware and glow-in-the-dark Vaseline pieces produced by Fenton. Generally, how much a particular piece is worth depends on its age, style, type, availability and condition. A certified appraiser or experienced antique dealer can give you an estimate as to the values of any Fenton pieces in your collection. Shop a range of Fenton glass on 1stDibs.

- How do I reverse paint on glass?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022The first step in reverse glass painting is to select your design and to transfer it to a pane of glass.

- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022The difference between stained glass and painted glass is how it is made. To create stained glass, an artisan adds pigments to the glass and then fires it at high temperatures to permanently change the appearance of the material. With painted glass, color is added after firing and may rub off or fade with age. You'll find a large selection of glass decorative objects on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Windows that appear to be made of painted glass are called stained glass windows. Stained glass windows are made of glass that has been colored by mixing molten glass with metallic oxides. Shop a range of stained glass pieces from top sellers on 1stDibs.

- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022The craft of painting enamel on glass is called enameling. Because regular paint would simply wash off glass, the artisan uses enamel and fires it into the glass once they have painted the design. Browse a range of enameled glass pieces on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Reverse painting on glass is called verre églomisé. The term gets its name from the 18th-century decorator Jean-Baptiste Glomy who became famous for his reverse-painted glass prints. On 1stDibs, you can shop a collection of verre églomisé furniture and jewelry.
- 1stDibs ExpertAugust 17, 2021Yes, it is safe to paint a glass lampshade as long as you are using glass-specific paint. One thing to note: If your lampshade is translucent (versus opaque), the paint color will look slightly different when you turn the lamp on.
- 1stDibs ExpertMay 30, 2024Technically, you can put a canvas painting in a glass frame. However, many experts advise against it. Paintings executed on canvas typically do not need the protection of glass, and a glass front on a frame can actually make it more difficult to admire the brushwork and fine details of a piece. On 1stDibs, explore a diverse assortment of paintings.
