Marigold Carnival Glass 'Tree Bark' Pattern Pitcher by Jeannette Glass Company

This Tree Bark pattern pitcher was manufactured by the Jeannette Glass Company in the 1930s during the height of carnival glass popularity. The distinctive iridescent marigold finish was created by applying metallic salts to the hot glass and refiring it, resulting in the shimmering golden-orange surface that collectors prize. Carnival glass items like this pitcher became highly sought after by collectors starting in the 1960s and remain popular today. The Tree Bark pattern with its textured vertical ribbing is particularly valued among carnival glass enthusiasts for its aesthetic appeal and historical connection to Depression-era glassware. Collectors appreciate these pieces for both their decorative value and as representations of American glassmaking craftsmanship.
