#0711 Imperial Glass Hobstar Marigold two piece carnival glass set creamer and open sugar

No chips or cracks 4.5” tall creamer 3.5” sugar Carnival glass, also known as iridescent glass, was produced from the mid-19th century through the mid-20th century, with its peak popularity between 1907 and 1925. It is distinguished by its shimmering, rainbow-like surface, achieved by applying metallic salts to the glass while it was still hot. This technique created a vibrant, eye-catching effect that made it a popular and affordable alternative to more expensive cut glass. The "marigold" color is one of the most common and sought-after hues, characterized by its warm, golden-orange iridescence. The hobstar and star medallion pattern is a classic design found on many pieces of carnival glass, reflecting the popular pressed glass patterns of the Victorian era. These sets, often including a creamer and spooner, were commonly used for serving sugar and cream or for holding individual spoons. They were produced by numerous American manufacturers, including Fenton, Northwood, and Imperial, and remain popular collectibles today due to their beauty and historical significance.
