Fenton International Launches Gold Ruby Glassware

(Williamstown, WV, June 10, 2008). The Fenton International division
of Fenton Art Glass has begun to market a line of imported glassware called Gold Ruby. Fourteen different items ranging from bowls and baskets to pitchers and vases complete the collection. These giftware products will be available to order online at www.fentonartglass.com by August 1. Each piece will carry the distinctive Fenton International logo.

"This Gold Ruby line is a direct response to dealer requests," said Fenton Art Glass Company President George W. Fenton. "Our traditional Cranberry made in Williamstown was discontinued more than a year ago, and some importers have come into the marketplace with their versions of this glass color. We have more than a century of design and color expertise, so we decided to use that expertise to become the premier supplier of colored glass from around the world. We worked closely with an experienced glass manufacturer in China to create distinctive, attractive items for this new Gold Ruby line. Quality is a top priority, and this firm is one of the few that can meet our specifications. As its name states, Gold Ruby glass is made with pure gold in the formula. The shapes are all original designs, and we think that giftware dealers and customers alike will respond positively to them."

Creating "art for the home" for more than a century, Fenton Art Glass continues to produce handcrafted colored art glass in Williamstown, West Virginia under the Fenton USA division. Fenton is known worldwide for its wide range of colors, handpainting and handcrafting. For four generations, Fenton family members have remained active in the business and are proud to continue an American glassmaking tradition begun in 1905.
