Know before you buy
Fenton acquired the rights to various Fostoria glass molds after the company closed, allowing them to produce classic, ornate shapes like this one. This piece combines that traditional Baroque silhouette with Fenton’s signature hand-painted artistry.
This piece features the Fenton script logo, which is the standard mark for their glass products. Additionally, it is signed by the artist, J. Cutshaw, which authenticates the hand-painted floral design.
The candy box measures 6 1/2 inches in width. It is a substantial size, suitable for holding small candies or serving as a decorative centerpiece on a vanity or coffee table.
Yes, the condition report confirms the piece is entirely free of chips, cracks, or mold damage, which includes the decorative knob on the lid. It has been inspected to ensure the glass is intact throughout.
The design is hand-painted, which is a delicate finish. To preserve the integrity of the blue hydrangea motif, it is best to clean the piece gently with a soft, dry cloth rather than using harsh chemicals or a dishwasher.
