Lot 315:
Red Carnival Glass Vase in the Four Seventy Four Pattern
Sold for: $75
Description
This carnival glass vase is rendered in the Four Seventy Four pattern, also known as number 474 or Mayflower, a design originally produced by the Imperial Glass Company. The piece is constructed from deep ruby red pressed glass featuring a highly reflective iridescent finish that displays a spectrum of blue, green, and purple tones. The body is decorated with large floral medallions positioned within pointed panels at the upper section, transitioning into a field of geometric hobstars and faceted points above the foot. The rim is flared and deeply scalloped. The base is circular with a molded 16-point star design on the exterior underside. A molded mark of a capital N within a circle is visible on the interior center base, indicating this is a 20th-century production likely commissioned by the L.G. Wright Glass Company using this pattern.
Dimensions not provided.
Condition report:
The vase is in excellent condition with no observed chips, cracks, or repairs. The iridescent coating is bright, even, and well-preserved across the entire surface. There is minor shelf wear on the base consistent with age and display.
