Lotus Mist Burmese History:

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, our chemist, to develop Lotus Mist Burmese, which debuted in our Fenton Historic Collection in 2000.

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!

A talented artist and devoted Franciscan nun, Sister Maria Innocentia Hummel created art between 1932 and her untimely death in 1946. Her art is renowned for characteristic simplicity, celebration of childhood innocence and warm reflection on human nature. Sister Hummel's natural, simple, harmonious and sometimes humorous works focus on the essential elements of the unspoiled innocence of childhood. Sister recognized childhood as an occasion of 'peace and goodness' that must be protected for each generation. The enduring quality of the art, and the constant reminder that it is 'all about the children'
is an appeal to the heart that spawned a worldwide legacy now into its second century.
