Butterfly Ornaments, Fenton  Updated 10/20/2009

These are the old Fenton butterfly ornaments. They have a wingspan of three inches and, as can be seen, are much more delicate than the newer ones. It's been suggested that they were given away at the factory when a purchase was made. About 40 of these are known in seven colors: aqua, blue, marigold, green, ice blue, ice green, and white. Marigold seem to outnumber the others. I have records of 11 ornaments having sold at auction since 1993; all in marigold except three.
