History: Fenton introduced the Silver Crest line (white milk glass with a clear rim) in 1940. Due to its popularity, they expanded to cased colors under the general \"Crest\" line, including Peach Crest (pink overlay on milk glass), Rose Crest (deeper pink), and others. The melon mold is a quintessential Fenton shape, produced in various colors and patterns over many decades.
