Fenton USA Presents. . . New Poppies on Blush Rose!

(Williamstown, WV, July 31, 2009).  Appealing to the eye and pleasing to the ear. . . baskets and bells are delightful for decorating or simply to enjoy. . .and nobody does baskets and bells like Fenton. . . handcrafted in the USA with amazing skill! Our new Blush Rose glass provides the perfect canvas for designer Kim Barley's lovely
Poppies on Blush Rose motif.

Included in this new grouping are a
7-1/2" oval basket and a 6-1/2" Aurora bell. The oval basket has a diamond optic pattern and a fine rib twisted handle. Each basket features a distinctive handler's mark. The basket handler has less than 30 seconds to accomplish his tasks: attach a glowing ribbon of molten glass to one side of the basket; deftly twist the rapidly cooling glass; stick it to the other side; impress the base of each side of the handle with his handler's mark; and finally, fashion the handle into a graceful arch.

The Aurora pattern of our bell was inspired by a ca. 1920s motif at U.S. Glass. The perfect addition to a bell collection!

Item 8637HK 7-1/2" Oval Basket retails for $99.50 U.S.
Item 9667HK 6-1/2'' Aurora Bell retails for $49.50 U.S.
