Details

In 1939, Fenton started selling the Hobnail Pattern in milk glass. This pattern would become their top-selling line. Those of us "oldies" probably remember that "white bumpy glass" on the family table. Well, that "white bumpy glass", turns out to be the highly collectible Hobnail milk glass pattern. You may be wondering what is hobnail? In days past people would pound round headed nails into the soles of their boots to give them traction on sloppy ground, giving their boots a bottom with rounded studs. This gave Fenton the idea to call their bumpy pattern Hobnail.

This milk white the 6 " tumbler follows the traditional Hobnail pattern. Starting with a circular footed base, the tumbler is covered with a tight hobnail pattern up to it's smooth rim. This rim makes the glass much more comfortable to drink from, I'm sure. This Hobnail Pattern was retired in 1989. Look through our replacement category to find many more wonderful replacement pieces from this retired pattern.
