Fenton Weekly eBay Auctions. . .

Here's your opportunity to own a unique, rare, one-of-a-kind creation, through our weekly eBay Auctions! Shown below are our latest offerings: a one-of-a-kind freeform bowl by glass artisan Frank Workman, two photos of Fenton's iconic "Clarence" glassworker display and a one-of-a-kind Owl figurine by Robin Spindler. Items featured this week. . .

Fenton glass artisan Frank Workman made a small number of one-of-a-kind offhand glass bowls/vases while visiting the Mosser glass factory. This fantastic freeform bowl is 10.5" across at its widest points and stands 5.25" tall at its uppermost points. Frank used cobalt blue glass, then rolled the glass gather in red powder. Applied glass threading was worked into the surface in a zig-zag pattern, and threading was also applied to the body and the edge. When the glass was expanded, this bowl was the dramatic result! This piece is personally signed and dated on the underside: "Frank Workman 3-28-15".

The now-iconic "Clarence" glassworker display was developed by the John Falkner Arndt advertising agency in Philadelphia especially for the Fenton Art Glass Co. in the 1950s. The "Clarence" figure was made of papier mache' and an 8" x 10" publicity photo was used to introduce Clarence to Fenton customers in department stores across the county. Just prior to the introduction of Clarence, Fenton had a different glassworker display in papier mache' that was modeled on a real Fenton glassworker named Frank Meyers. An 8" x 10" photo shows this display at the Marshall Field department store in Chicago, Illinois, circa early 1950s.
 

Everything about this one-of-a-kind Owl figurine (6" tall) by award-winning Fenton artist Robin Spindler says "Whoo will have me in your home?" The delicate airbrushed color of the Opal Satin glass body contrasts with the details of the face, wingtips and feet. The craggy purple rocks create a perfect perch! The face and eyes are remarkably expressive. This one-of-a-kind Owl figurine is signed on the underside: "Fenton 2015 hand painted by J. K. Spindler OOAK".
