For more than half a
century, overlay colors have been produced by Fenton.
A core of colored glass is gathered and shaped by a
skilled glassworker called a Blocker. Then, a layer of Milk Glass is gathered
over the colored glass. Our glass technologists assure that the two
layers of glass will match perfectly, expanding and contracting at
the same rate.

In the first half of
the 20th century, glassmakers strived to make a uniform Ruby color
suitable for railroad signals, lantern globes, and auto tail
lights. Fenton's Ruby glass is made with selenium and cadmium and
is a collector favorite.

Lotus Mist Burmese 5-1/2'' Cross Bell |
Fenton USA Fall 2011
First Final.
. . Bells
Appealing to the eye, pleasing to
the ear, delightful to decorate with and to enjoy
—
that's the beauty of Fenton bells.
Our
Fenton Glass Fall 2011 First Final
grouping includes these lovely Cross Bells, handcrafted and
handpainted with care by the artisans at Fenton. The two bells
shown here are handcrafted in Lotus Mist Burmese. Each bell
features handpainted accents designed by Stacy Williams, which add
to the beauty of these pieces. Each bell is signed by the talented
Fenton artist who completed it.
Company President George Fenton wanted to see if our skilled
craftsmen could make an opaque green with a glass batch containing
pure gold which would create a delicate pink when the piece was
reheated. George and Nancy Fenton worked closely with Wayne King,
the company's chemist, to develop Lotus Mist Burmese. The new
color debuted in the Fenton Historic Collection in 2000.
09761HPA - $49.50
Lotus Mist Burmese,
5-1/2'' Cross Bell |
The formula for Lotus Mist Burmese includes a chromium compound
which gives the glass the green color. Opaque green colors have a
long history in glass, but, to the best of our knowledge, Lotus
Mist Burmese is a genuine innovation - the very first made from a
heat-sensitive batch containing gold to create the pink color!
These handcrafted bells retail for $49.50 and make a perfect gift
for pastor appreciation, Sunday School Teacher, confirmations, or
as an inspirational gift for someone special. To order, please

Internet
Specials. . . Violet Iridized Alley
Cat
One of Fenton's most popular items
since we first made it in 1970, the Alley Cat mould originated
during the 1920s at the U.S. Glass Co. plant in Tiffin, Ohio.
Fenton acquired the mould in the mid-1960s. Since that time, we
have made the Alley Cat in many different colors and decorative
treatments, and each has been greeted with much enthusiasm by
Fenton collectors, who just can't get enough of this Alley Cat's
characteristic grin.
Our Internet Special Alley Cat stands about 11" tall. Michelle
Kibbe added a whimsical handpainted design that perfectly suits
this fun Cat who looks ready to play. The figurine is handcrafted
in our jewel-toned Violet glass that has been iridized. The
iridescent effect is achieved by spraying the Alley Cat while very
hot right after it's taken out of the mould. The spray consists of
special metallic salts, and it imparts a rainbow of colors to the
glass. Fenton pioneered this technique more than a century ago,
and our letterhead stationery proudly proclaimed us as
"Originators of Iridescent Ware." Each piece reflects some of the
great traditions of the American glass industry as well as our
pride in handmade art glass. Click on the image to order...
