Carnival glass lamp

Description

Hey all,

I'm looking for information on this lamp. My mom bought it  at least 20 yers ago. She passed away last year and i don't know anything about it. I've always though it was beautiful and would like to know its value and history.

Thanks,

Anita (spitzlab)

It appears to be a Fenton Glass Company Lamp.(looks like the tag is still on it)

Very nice, I have been looking for one, but havent seen one for sale lately for a reference, Value should be at least a couple hundred.

If you wish to sell it , I would love to add it to my carnival glass collection!

I understand that. The value may even be up to around 500. The Fenton GWTW (gone with the wind) style can reach higher up to 850 or more but usually, that is only for special editions or signed/hand painted lamps.

If you do ever decide to to sell it let me know.

 

Best wishes.

LOL, yeah better not tell me! I would want that too. Although the student carnival glass lamp is a little more common, still would be a nice addition.
