This pretty compote has an opalescent ruffled rim.  The amber is very rich and the contrast with the ruffle is very attractive.  I bought this recently, although I don’t recall where – perhaps in Fenelon Falls.

The pattern is quite pronounced – open water lily blooms and another flower head in profile.  I can’t decide whether it is a closed water lily or a tulip.

The piece is signed.  It has the word Fenton, enclosed in an oval, with the teensiest number “8” beneath the oval.  Carnival Glass 101 identifies this mark to indicate a production date of the 1980s.  Check this site out if you are trying to identify a glass mark- it’s great!
