Fenton Art Glass Candle/Cake Plate

While this piece is designed as a display plate, it is made of glass and can be used to serve dry or wrapped desserts. However, because it is hand-painted and features an iridescent finish, we recommend using a doily or parchment paper to protect the surface from scratches or direct contact with food.

To maintain the integrity of the hand-painted floral design and the iridescent finish, hand wash the plate gently with mild soap and warm water. Avoid using abrasive sponges, harsh chemicals, or the dishwasher, as these can damage the delicate paint and glass surface over time.

Yes, the flat, round surface is well-suited for displaying pillar candles or a collection of votives. Just be mindful of the heat; if you are burning candles directly on the glass, ensure the candle is in a heat-resistant container or use a protective base to prevent potential heat stress on the glass.

Carnival glass is known for its distinct, rainbow-like iridescence that shifts depending on the light. In this piece, you will see warm, golden undertones that catch the light, creating a shimmering effect that highlights the hand-painted floral pattern.

This specific plate was manufactured in 2005. While it is not an antique, it represents the high-quality craftsmanship Fenton was known for during that era, featuring the classic American-made art glass techniques the brand is famous for.
