    Description

    MILLERSBURG GLASS was begun in 1908 by John Fenton - Brother of Frank Fenton of Fenton Glass.  The company startled out great but mysteriously ceased production in 1911.  In their short time they produced a very high quality glass with stretch iridescence that was known as 'Radium' Glass.  It became very popular.  Because of the high quality and scarcity these rare pieces are much sought after.  This tumbler is in the Marigold color and styled with beaded diamonds under a thumbprint pattern.  The tumbler is 3.75" high and 3" across the mouth and holds 6oz of liquid.  I find no chips. cracks, blisters or other after production defects.  A little gem from the past - a true 'Antique'!
