Honor
Collection
Floral Arches on Mulberry
The
2003 Honor Collection is a tribute to Fenton founder Frank L. Fenton, who
developed Mulberry glass during the early 1940s. At the time, Fenton was producing
a transparent color called Aqua. Frank L. suggested the glassblowers take
a small amount of the gold ruby to make Cranberry glass and cover it with
Aqua to see what combination would occur. The result was a beautiful color
that shaded from a reddish purple to blue. Mulberry's charm is in the distinctive
flow of color which is a glassmaker's challenge - hold the richest concentration
of gold ruby at the top of the piece and end with transparent blue at the
bottom.
