A wonderful piece of vintage American decorative glass with exceptional visual presence, this Indiana Glass Marigold Carnival Glass Hen on Nest combines sculptural form, rich color and shimmering iridescence. The hen is beautifully modeled with individually articulated wing and tail feathers, textured plumage, a raised comb, detailed facial features and a dimensional head. The nest below provides an equally attractive foundation with its warm translucent marigold glass and pronounced beaded border. Natural and directional lighting brings the carnival finish to life. Depending upon viewing angle, the surface transitions from saturated amber and burnt orange to metallic gold with subtle rainbow flashes across the feathers. Its approximately 7-inch length gives the piece enough scale to display beautifully without overwhelming a tabletop or cabinet. Particularly striking in French Country, traditional, collected farmhouse, maximalist, Grandmillennial and eclectic interiors, it works beautifully on a kitchen counter, open shelving, buffet, breakfast-room cabinet or curated glass collection. The removable hen lid also preserves the charming functionality traditionally associated with the hen-on-nest form while allowing the piece to stand confidently as decorative art glass. The hen-on-nest form has become one of the most recognizable motifs in vintage American pressed glass, combining the nostalgic character of traditional covered dishes with highly dimensional glassmaking. This example becomes especially decorative in marigold carnival glass, where the detailed feather pattern provides countless raised surfaces for the iridescent treatment to reflect light. The result is significantly more visually dynamic than ordinary transparent amber glass, making the piece particularly attractive for display. Indiana Glass Company is an established name in American pressed glass, and this discontinued Marigold Carnival Hen on Nest remains a distinctive representation of the company’s decorative animal-form glassware. Condition: Vintage condition consistent with age. Please review all photographs carefully, as they form an important part of the description and show the glass, molded detail, coloration and finish. Light surface scratches on bottom consistent with display use that is shown in the photos. Approximate Measurements: 7” Long 5” Tall Two-piece construction consisting of the hen-form lid and coordinating nest base. Because carnival glass is highly reflective, its iridescent coloration can appear stronger or softer depending upon lighting, viewing angle and surrounding colors.
