Fenton Gift Shop Exclusive. . .
Handpainted Sky Blue Pitcher
As
we continue to wind down the remaining inventory in the
factory, the Fenton Gift Shop
will be offering handpainted exclusives through our weekly eNewletters and in the shop. Quantities are very limited, so
they will be sold
on a first come, first served basis. No
additional discounts apply to this item.
This week's feature is the lovely Sky Blue
7'' Pitcher shown at left. Award-winning Fenton designer J. K.
''Robin'' Spindler handpainted this wonderfully detailed cat.
Her rendition makes you want to reach out and pet it!
Robin completed just 17 of these Pitchers. Each piece is
signed, numbered and dated with ''Fenton 2014''.
Just eight of
these pitchers are available to order online!
The number "one" Pitcher is also Robin's
''Designer Sample'' and will be offered in a future Fenton
eBay auction, so be on the watch for this special piece!
